| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study focused on epidemiology of zoonotic protozoan diseases and development of diagnosis system for social implementation in Indonesia. Infection risk of protozoan parasites such as Toxoplasma and Cryptosporidium was found in Sulawesi and Java, Indonesia. Especially, infection risk of Toxoplasma in human increased at ages 10-20, suggesting the infection from meat or environment. In fact, Toxoplasma infection in cattle and pig was confirmed in these regions. Additionally, useful diagnosis system of Cryptosporidium was developed for future epidemiological study. For development of human resources based on collaborative research, seminar and technical workshop were organized.
