RESUMO

Lasalocid, sinefungin, and dehydroepiandrosterone were tested for anticryptosporidial activity with an immunodeficient mouse model at doses that have been reported effective when tested with immunosuppressed rodent models. Small but significant reductions in oocyst excretion were only observed under some conditions with lasalocid and dehydroepiandrosterone, but sinefungin had no effect.
