Abstract:

Sporozoites of Cryptosporidium parvum excysted in vitro from bovine oocysts were incubated with monolayers of Madin-Darby bovine kidney cells. The extent of parasite colonisation was monitored by light microscopy and immunofluorescence. Electron microscopy confirmed the complete development and replication of C. parvum within Madin-Darby bovine kidney cells.
