Research progress on the contamination status and control policy of Giardia and Cryptosporidium in drinking water

Cryptosporidium and Giardia are globally recognized protozoa that directly cause human diarrhea. Their transmission route mainly involves drinking contaminated water, thus needing proper water treatment to avoid human infection. At present, there is a lack of review on the infection status and contr...
