title: [Optimization of parasitological diagnosis of human intestinal microsporidiosis].
abstract: The diagnosis of microsporidiosis by staining stools is known to be fast and cheap. To obtain a specific and sensitive result, two colorimetric methods must be used: staining by the fluorochrome Uvitex 2 B (VAN GOOL) and trichrome. Among the four staining methods of trichrome currently studied, the WEBER coloration could be considered as the most efficient. The density of microsporidia spores could be semi-quantitatively evaluated, because their distribution is homogeneous.
