Infectivity of Cryptosporidium hominis and Cryptosporidium parvum Genotype 2 Isolates in Immunosuppressed Mongolian Gerbils

One-month-old dexamethasone-immunosuppressed Mongolian gerbils were challenged with 1 oocyst to 2 × 10(5) oocysts from two isolates genotyped as Cryptosporidium hominis and C. parvum (genotype 2), respectively.
