摘要
Cryptosporidium parvum from 73 dairy calves less than two months old from Buenos Aires province (Argentina) were molecularly characterized using sequence analysis of the GP60 gene. Seventy-five sequences were obtained, and seven different subtypes were identified, all belonging to the Ha subtype family. The most common subtypes were IIaA20G1R1 (27/75), IIaA22G1R1 (16/75), and IIaA18G1R1 (13/ 75). Subtypes IIaA21G1R1, IIaA23G1R1, IIaA16G1R1 and IIaA19G1R1 were found sporadically. Two samples contained mixed infections with IIaA21G1R1 and IIaA22G1R1. A significant association was found between subtypes and geographic location, whereas there was no relation between subtypes and presence of diarrhea. Three of the subtypes found in this study (IIaA16G1R1, IIaA18G1R1, and IIaA19G1R1) were previously identified in humans. These findings suggest that cattle could play an important role in the transmission of cryptosporidiosis to humans in Buenos Aires province. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
