TL;DR: Phylogenetic analyses and sequence comparisons showed that SARS-CoV is not closelyrelated to any of the previouslycharacterized coronaviruses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic diversity within cryptosporidium parvum and related cryptosporidium species
Lihua Xiao,Una M. Morgan,Josef Limor,Ananias A. Escalante,Michael J. Arrowood,William P. Shulaw,R.C.A. Thompson,Ronald Fayer,Altaf A. Lal +8 more
TL;DR: A need for revision in the taxonomy and assessment of the zoonotic potential of some animal C. parvum isolates is indicated, because extensive genetic diversities were present among C. Parvum genotypes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of 5 types of Cryptosporidium parasites in children in Lima, Peru.
Lihua Xiao,Caryn Bern,Josef Limor,Irshad M. Sulaiman,Jacquelin M. Roberts,William Checkley,Lilia Cabrera,Robert H. Gilman,Robert H. Gilman,Altaf A. Lal +9 more
TL;DR: There was no significant difference in age, antecedent stunting, percentage with diarrhea, or duration of diarrhea for episodes with human genotype, compared with those of zoonotic Cryptosporidium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular Characterization of Cryptosporidium Oocysts in Samples of Raw Surface Water and Wastewater
TL;DR: The small-subunit rRNA-based PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) technique can be a useful alternative method for detection and differentiation of Cryptosporidium parasites in water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of species and sources of Cryptosporidium oocysts in storm waters with a small-subunit rRNA-based diagnostic and genotyping tool.
TL;DR: A small-subunit rRNA-based PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism technique is used to identify species and sources of Cryptosporidium oocysts present in 29 storm water samples collected from a stream in New York.
