Isolation of Cryptosporidium parvum Oocyst From Infected Feces
Introduction Cryptosporidium is a genus of Apicomplexa phylum parasites that can cause a respiratory and gastrointestinal illness (cryptosporidiosis) that primarily involves watery diarrhea (intestinal cryptosporidiosis) with or without a persistent cough (respiratory cryptosporidiosis) in both immunocompetent and immunodeficient humans (1-3). A number of Cryptosporidium species infect mammals ...
متن کاملIsolation of Small Number of Cryptosporidium parvum Oocyst Using Immunochromatography
BACKGROUND Cryptosporidium parvum causes severe gastroenteritis in immunocompromised human and new borne animals. The organism can be transmitted through water. Since small number of C. parvum is infectious, the aim of the present study was to develop a chromatography method for the isolation of C. parvum oocyst in samples with limited number of oocysts. METHODS Antibody was prepared against ...
متن کاملIsolating a Single Qubit in a Multi Qubit System
Quantum computing, a whole new paradigm to computing, is based on using Quantum Mechanics for computation. The basic element in a quantum computer is a “qubit” which is a two-state physical system. Unlike a classical bit which can exist in one of two states, 0 or 1, a qubit can not only exist in its two basis states, but also in any linear combination of these states. A quantum computer compris...
متن کاملAn Integrated Cryptosporidium Assay to Determine Oocyst Density, Infectivity
12 Cryptosporidium continues to be problematic for the water industry, with risk assessments 13 often indicating that treatment barriers may fail under extreme conditions. However, risk 14 analyses have historically used oocyst densities and not considered either oocyst infectivity or 15 species/genotype, which can result in an overestimation of risk if the oocysts are not human 16 infective. W...
متن کاملUse of a sentinel system for field measurements of Cryptosporidium parvum oocyst inactivation in soil and animal waste.
A small-volume sentinel chamber was developed to assess the effects of environmental stresses on survival of sucrose-Percoll-purified Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts in soil and animal wastes. Chambers were tested for their ability to equilibrate with external chemical and moisture conditions. Sentinel oocysts were then exposed to stresses of the external environment that affected their viabilit...
