Evaluation of direct wet mount parasitological examination of preserved fecal specimens.
A retrospective study covering a 12-year period was performed to determine the contribution of the direct wet mount microscopic examination to the identification of intestinal parasites in preserved fecal material. It was determined that each of 898 specimens contained at least one parasite when processed by the direct wet mount, concentration, and trichrome staining procedures. Of these proced...
متن کاملExamination of preserved stool specimens for parasites: lack of value of the direct wet mount.
To review the appropriateness of standard reference procedures for diagnostic parasitology, we examined 2,206 stool specimens in our laboratory by direct wet mounting with saline and iodine, by saline and iodine wet mounting from Formalin-ethyl acetate concentrates, and by permanent staining with Wheatley's modified trichrome method (W.B. Wheatley, Am. J. Clin. Pathol. 21: 990-991, 1951). Paras...
متن کاملStatistical analysis of the incidence of positives in the examination of parasitological specimens.
Results of the examination of 2,000 parasitological specimens were analyzed for differences between results obtained by a technologist working in parasitology only and those obtained by general microbiologists who were also performing other laboratory work. The relative share of specimens determined to be positive by the specialist was approximately twice as high as the relative share determine...
