Cryptosporidium and Giardia Occurrence Data in Wildlife from Arctic Alaska, 2012-2017

This dataset consists of one table with sample collection locations and results of screening resident wildlife for Cryptosporidium and Giardia in the Alaskan Arctic, 2012-2017. We analyzed feces collected from polar bear, Pacific walrus, Arctic fox, and caribou with MERIFLUOR direct immunofluorescence assay to determine the presence of Cryptosporidium oocysts and Giardia cysts.

本数据集包含一张表格，收录了2012至2017年阿拉斯加北极地区本地野生动物隐孢子虫（Cryptosporidium）与贾第鞭毛虫（Giardia）筛查的样本采集地点及检测结果。本研究采用MERIFLUOR直接免疫荧光测定法，对北极熊、太平洋海象、北极狐以及驯鹿的粪便样本开展检测，以判定隐孢子虫卵囊与贾第鞭毛虫包囊的存在情况。
