SPECIMEN
COLLECTION: Intestinal Tract
Do
you have to collect the stool specimen any differently if
you are looking for the coccidia (Cryptosporidium parvum,
Cyclospora cayetanensis, Isospora belli)?
Fresh
stool or specimens preserved in routine stool fixatives (formalin-based)
can be used for diagnostic procedures for the identification
of the coccidial oocysts. |
