Sample prevalence and molecular characterisation of Cryptosporidium andersoni within a dairy herd in the United Kingdom
Bovine cryptosporidiosis is usually an acute diarrhoeal disease of young calves caused by Cryptosporidium parvum. However, chronic infection with Cryptosporidium andersoni has been associated with gastritis, reduced milk yield and poor weight gain in adult cattle. Here we describe the first genetic...

description | Bovine cryptosporidiosis is usually an acute diarrhoeal disease of young calves caused by
Cryptosporidium parvum. However, chronic infection with
Cryptosporidium andersoni has been associated with gastritis, reduced milk yield and poor weight gain in adult cattle. Here we describe the first genetic confirmation and characterisation of
C. andersoni from cattle in the United Kingdom and its sample prevalence within a dairy herd. Oocysts measured 7.5

μm (7.0–8.5

4.5–6.5
μm) with a length-to-width ratio of 1.37 (1.08–1.60). The within-herd sample prevalence was 16% (95% confidence intervals
=
10.4–21.6%). Nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and sequence analysis of the small subunit rDNA was used to confirm the species and characterise the isolates. Due to the lack of overt, acute, clinical symptoms, the incidence, prevalence and importance of this parasite is probably currently underestimated in cattle in the UK. The potential for zoonotic transmission is unknown. |
