The coccidians Cryptosporidium spp, Cyclospora cayetanensis, and Cystoisospora
belli and the flagellate Giardia duodenalis are pathogenic protozoa associated
with gastrointestinal manifestations. Diagnosis relies heavily on microscopy, and
although ova-and-parasite examinations can detect Giardia and Cystoisospora,
Cryptosporidium and Cyclospora often require specific diagnostic requests.
Approved non-microscopy methods are available for Giardia and Cryptosporidium,
although negative results are frequently followed by microscopic assays.
Polymerase chain reaction-based methods are not frequently used for diagnosis of
Giardia and Cryptosporidium and have been used primarily for epidemiologic or
outbreak investigations of Giardia and Cryptosporidium.
