Faecal samples from 683 diarrhoeic and non-diarrhoeic piglets, calves, lambs and goat kids were examined for Cryptosporidium oocysts. The prevalence of infection in piglets and lambs was 19.6% and 20%, respectively, and these rates were significantly higher than those detected in calves (8.7%). Amongst the four animal species studied, the detection rates were higher in diarrhoeic than in non-diarrhoeic animals and in animals under extensive and semi-intensive husbandry systems. However, these differences were not statistically significant.
对683头腹泻和未腹泻的仔猪、犊牛、羔羊和山羊羔的粪便样本进行了隐孢子虫卵囊检测。仔猪和羔羊的感染率分别为19.6%和20%，这些比率显著高于犊牛的感染率（8.7%）。在所研究的四种动物中，腹泻动物的检出率高于未腹泻动物，在粗放和半集约饲养系统下的动物检出率也更高。然而，这些差异无统计学意义。
