ABSTRACT
To demonstrated the zoonotic cryptosporidiosis. A total of 189 farmers and their farm animals [200= 71 buffaloes, 59 cows, 43 sheep and 27 goats were examined. Stool samples Each stool sample was subjected to the direct wet smear method and Sheather's sugar flotation and acid-ether sedimentation techniques and stained with four stains [Modified Ziehl Neelsen, Safranin, methylene blue. Aniline carbol methyl violet and Giemsa]. A positive statistically significant correlation was observed between farmers and their farm animals infected with cryptosporidium parvum proving a zoonotic potential for infection [r = 0.819 P <0.01 for cryptosporidiosis. For detection of Cryptosporidium, 100% sensitivity was obtained when acid ether concentration technique was used and modified Ziehl-Neelsen stain revealed highest sensitivity of 92.1%
