A total of 498 fecal samples were purified by centrifugal-flotation using Sheather's solution. Cryptosporidium spp. diagnosis was performed using three diagnostic methods: malachite green negative staining, nested PCR targeting the 18S rRNA gene, followed by sequencing the amplified fragments, and duplex real-time PCR targeting the 18S rRNA specific to detect Cryptosporidium galli and Cryptosporidium avian genotype III. The overall positivity for Cryptosporidium spp. (total samples positive in at least one protocol) from the microscopic analysis, nested PCR and duplex real-time PCR protocol results was 13.3% (66\/498). The positivity rates were 2.0% (10\/498) and 4.6% (23\/498) for Cryptosporidium spp. by microscopy and nested PCR, respectively. Sequencing of 20 samples amplified by nested PCR identified C. galli (3.0%; 15\/498), Cryptosporidium avian genotype I (0.8%; 4\/498) and Cryptosporidium avium (0.2%; 1\/498). Duplex real-time PCR revealed a positivity of 7.8% (39\/498) for C. galli and 2.4% (12\/498) for avian genotype III. Malachite green negative staining differed significantly from nested PCR in detecting Cryptosporidium spp. Duplex real-time PCR was more sensitive than nested PCR\/sequencing for detecting gastric Cryptosporidium in canaries.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/s1984-296120180010","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,3,3]],"date-time":"2018-03-03T23:11:33Z","timestamp":1520118693000},"page":"60-65","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Detection and molecular characterization of Cryptosporidium spp. in captive canaries (Serinus canaria) using different diagnostic methods"],"prefix":"10.1590","volume":"27","author":[{"given":"Vin\u00edcius da Silva","family":"Camargo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Estadual Paulista, Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bruna Nicoleti","family":"Santana","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Estadual Paulista, Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elis Domingos","family":"Ferrari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Estadual Paulista, Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alex Akira","family":"Nakamura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculdades Adamantinenses Integradas, Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Walter Bertequini","family":"Nagata","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Estadual Paulista, Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ana Rita Moraes","family":"Nardi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Funda\u00e7\u00e3o Municipal de Ensino Superior, Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marcelo Vasconcelos","family":"Meireles","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Estadual Paulista, Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"530","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,3,1]]},"reference":[{"issue":"6","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1491","DOI":"10.1007\/s00436-010-1810-5","article-title":"Multilocus genotypic analysis of Cryptosporidium isolates from cockatiels, Japan","volume":"106","author":"Abe N","year":"2010","journal-title":"Parasitol Res"},{"issue":"11","key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"4281","DOI":"10.1007\/s00436-015-4668-8","article-title":"Ascaridia nymphii n. sp.
