...…oocysts, like Giardia cysts, are organisms that can be physically removed from water supplies by conventional particle separation processes including chemical coagulation–flocculation, clarification (sedimentation), and granular media filtration (Bellamy et al., 1993; Dai and Hozalski, 2003)....

...The limited body of literature on this subject is focused on the filtration behavior of Cryptosporidium parvum [1,21,33,54,65,82,133,134] and Giardia lamblia [65]— two waterborne pathogens of considerable concern [81,143]....
