made containers should be rejected.
•- Stool samples of babies obtained in
disposable napkins should be rejected.
•Stool samples must be examined within
1 hour after being provided by the
patient.

Look by the naked eye for the presence of:
Mucus especially when mucus is tinged with blood
Worms (Enterobius, Ascaris, Taenia segments)
Blood (may be due to piles or anal fissure)
Undigested food (Nil, +, ++, +++)
Steps of analysis
Worms Recovered In Stool
Enterobius
vermicularis
cylindrical worm
about 10 mm long
Ascaris lumbricoides
Cylindrical worm
about 20 cm long
several meters long
Taenia worm
Ribbon-like
Macroscopic and microscopic examination of stool.
Microscopic examination.(wet, concentration)
Significance:
Detection of parasitic infection.
Stool examination
Stool examination
Macroscopic
Colour:
Brown, black, pale-clay
Odour:
if mucus present:
put on a slide with a drop of iodine (iodine concentration is 10% in distilled water)
examined microscopically for Entamoeba trophozoites, pus & RBCs.
feacal, offensive
Mucous
Important especially when mucus is tinged with blood
Stool examination
Consistency
Blood
Fresh red blood => piles or anal fissure
Digested blood => colon disease (Black stool)
Formed, semi-formed, soft, Loose and watery
Macroscopic examination
Worms (Enterobius, Ascaris, Taenia segments)

• Recommend for stool culture
if many pus cells are seen with no evidence of presence
of parasite.
•Recommend test for Rota virus antigen examination
(for children between 2-5 years-old) for watery stool
samples showing no parasites.
•Recommend examination of 3 successive stool
samples
if Charcot Leyden crystals are detected in stool sample
to exclude infection.

and usually bacilli such as Escherichia coli and Lactobacillus sp.
Note: pathogenic bacteria may be found in stool (such as Salmonella,
Shigella, and Staphylococcus aureus) and this will leads to pus
formation, stool culture can differentiate between pathogenic and non
pathogenic bacteria.
Yeast:
