[Cryptosporidium detection in humans].
Cryptosporidium is known as an important cause of gastroenteritis in several animal species, especially in newborn calves and lambs. In our investigations we tested faeces samples of 78 diarrhoeic patients by the method of Ziehl-Neelsen modified after Henriksen. We could find Cryptosporidium oocysts in a boy of one and a half year. Cryptosporidia also should be considered as a cause of diarrhoeas in man.
