  1. LABORATORY DIAGNOSIS OF PARASITIC INFECTIONS

  2. Case diagnosis • History (Age, occupation, residency, previous infection) • Complaint • Clinical examination • Invesigations - Laboratory investigations - Radiology - Surgical intervention (Exploratory) Provisional diagnosis Confirm the diagnosis

  3. Ether Dissolve fat M.f Acetic acid RBC haemolysis Clear ova

  4. SEDIMENTATION CONCENTRATION URINE EXAMINATION Clean conical glass receptacle 15-20 min Centrifuge (2 min)

  5. URINE EXAMINATIONMembrane filtration technique air 10 ml urine Nucleopore filter + Saline Eggs of Schistosoma

  6. URINE EXAMINATION

  7. STOOL EXAMINATION

  8. Saline smear Iodine smear STOOL EXAMINATIONTemporary saline Iodine 1% • Huge number of: • Eggs • Protozoal troph. Motility • (Amoeb, flagellates) • Huge number of: • Cyst morphological details

  9. STOOL EXAMINATIONScanty infectionConcentration techniques Sedimentation Floatation • Non Operculated eggs • Trematodes ( S. m.) • Cestode • Nematode(Hookworms,Trichostong) • Cysts • Heavy eggs (Ascaris egg) • Operculated eggs (Trematodes) • Larvae (Strong sterc.) • Cysts
