The common species and subgenotypes causing cryptosporidiosis were studied in 394 children and 627 animals with diarrhea in Vellore in southern India. Although no zoonotic strains were identified in 13 infected children, 1 of 12 infected animals had C. hominis, indicating the potential for cross-species transmission. This study also reports C. xiaoi for the first time in India.
在印度南部的维洛尔,研究了引起隐孢子虫病的常见种和亚属。虽然在 13 名感染儿童中未发现人畜共患病株,但在 12 名感染动物中有 1 名携带人隐孢子虫,表明存在跨物种传播的潜力。本研究还首次在印度报告了微小隐孢子虫。
