Overview
A number of species of Cryptosporidium cause diseases in mammals. In humans, out of the 11 species of Cryptosporidium, C. parvum and C. hominis (previously C. parvum genotype 1) are mainly associated with disease. C. canis, C. felis, C. meleagridis, and C. muris are also sometimes associated cause disease in humans.[1]
Causes
Following are the causes of Cryptosporidiosis:[1]
- Cryptosporidium parvum (known previously as C. parvum genotype II)
- Cryptosporidium hominis
- Cryptosporidium felis, from cats
- Cryptosporidium canis, from dogs
- Cryptosporidium meleagridis, from birds
- Cryptosporidium suis, from pigs
- Cryptosporidium muris, from rodents
- Cryptosporidium cervine genotype from various animals
