title: Short communication: a simple method for performing worm-egg counts on sodium acetate formaldehyde-preserved samples.
abstract: The Kato Katz method is the most common way of performing worm-egg counts on human faecal samples, but it must be done in the field using freshly collected samples. This makes it difficult to use in remote, poorly accessible situations. This paper describes a simple method for egg counts on preserved samples collected in the field and sent to a central location for further processing.
