“…5,7,9 Cryptosporidium andersoni is recognized as a major species in adult cattle. 5,8,10 This finding is consistent with that of our study in which we detected C. andersoni in 7 adult cows. C. andersoni has also been reported in 3 of 2,414 patients with diarrhea, 18 suggesting possible zoonotic transmission to humans.…”

“…[25][26][27] In the present study, detection of one C. hominis isolate in a bovine diarrheal sample and detection of C. xiaoi in a previously unreported animal species indicate that in an endemic setting, there is potential for cross-species transmission, including reverse zoonotic transmission. Although studies in northern India have documented the presence of diverse species of Cryptosporidium in cattle, 7,8,10 C. hominis has not been reported in animals in any studies in India. To address zoonotic transmission in more detail, ongoing longitudinal studies are being conducted in the community where animal-human contact is prolonged.…”

“…This is only the second report of C. bovis in humans. The previous report C. bovis was in a dairy farm worker in India, where the infection was asymptomatic (Khan et al 2010). Subtype analysis at the gp60 locus identified the same C. parvum subtype in the calves in some of the humans, suggesting that zoonotic transmission may have occurred but more Table 5.…”

“…In the previous study in Australia, C. ryanae variants (reported as genotypes 1 and 2) and a C. suis-like genotype (reported as genotype 3) were also reported in buffaloes (Abeywardena et al 2013a). Cryptosporidium bovis is predominantly a parasite of livestock and has only been reported in humans on a few occasions (Khan et al 2010;Ng et al 2012). …”
