Abstract
The current study was conducted between the beginning of October 2022 and the end of March 2023 to identify the prevalence of Cryptosporidium parivum infection among children under five years using microscopic and molecular methods. The study recorded 43(37.71%) infected children diagnosed using the Modified Zeihl Neelsen Stain and Gimsa stain. On the other hand, a molecular examination of stool samples using PCR showed that 25(21.92%) children out of 115 collected stool samples were infected with this parasite. DNA Sequencing was performed for specimens diagnosed with Cryptosporidium parasite, and the new isolates were registered for the first time in Nineveh governorate in NCBI under the accession number 757376.
Keywords: Cryptosporidium disease, Genetic map.
