| dc.description.abstract | Cryptosporidium is an Apicomplexan, protozoan parasite, infecting the
gastroepithelium of many vertebrate hosts, including man, and is the causative
agent of the diarrhoeal disease cryptosporidiosis. Although infection may be
asymptomatic or mild and self-limiting in immunocompetent patients, in the
immunocompromised (especially the malnourished and those with HIV/AIDS), the
disease can be severe, leading to chronic dehydration and even death (Dillingham
etai., 2002). | |
