Separation of Cryptosporidium species oocysts from feces by using a percoll discontinuous density gradient

E Waldman et al. J Clin Microbiol. 1986 Jan.

Abstract

Cryptosporidium oocysts were concentrated by an ether-phosphate-buffered saline sedimentation technique and then separated by density gradient centrifugation. This two-step method yielded highly concentrated oocysts largely free of bacteria and fecal debris.
