Use of a bioinformatic-assisted primer design strategy to establish a new nested PCR-based method for Cryptosporidium
Abstract Background The accurate tracking of Cryptosporidium in faecal, water and/or soil samples in water catchment areas is central to developing strategies to manage the potential risk of cryptosporidiosis transmission to humans. Various PCR assays are used for this purpose. Although some assays...
