Apart from this, no histopathological changes were present, and cryptosporidia could not be detected.
Current analytical techniques for monitoring cryptosporidia in water are capable of indicating whether organisms are present in a sample but are not able to provide accurate quantitative results.
Cryptosporidia is a parasite that is often water-borne.
Most cryptosporidia are 3-6 m in size, although some reports have described larger cells.
Increased runoff from heavy rainfall could increase water-borne diseases such as giardia, cryptosporidia, and viral and bacterial gastroenteritis.
