Abstract

A fim de investigar a possibilidade de retenção de ovos de helmintos de fezes pelas diversas telas comumente
utilizadas nas técnicas de concentração, foram examinadas 24 amostras de fezes humanas pelo método de concentração
de Hoffman, empregando-se gaze comum e peneiras de nylon.
Verificou-se que a gaze comum retém quase 50% mais ovos de Ascaris lumbricoides do que a peneira de nylon.
