Detection of Cryptosporidium parvum Using the Kinyoun Acid-Fast Stain
As infection with Cryptosporidium parvum becomes increasingly recognized as a cause of outbreaks of foal diarrhea, a rapid method of oocyst detection in equine feces that can be done easily in the practice setting is desirable. Protozoal identification techniques that have been described include the evaluation of stained fecal smears or preparations of floated feces, using both light and phase-...
متن کاملEffects of ozone, chlorine dioxide, chlorine, and monochloramine on Cryptosporidium parvum oocyst viability.
Purified Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts were exposed to ozone, chlorine dioxide, chlorine, and monochloramine. Excystation and mouse infectivity were comparatively evaluated to assess oocyst viability. Ozone and chlorine dioxide more effectively inactivated oocysts than chlorine and monochloramine did. Greater than 90% inactivation as measured by infectivity was achieved by treating oocysts wit...
متن کاملIsolation 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 ...
