Collection description

In this thesis, the literature review in provides an overview of the main FEC techniques used for GIN in small ruminants (McMaster, FECPAK, Wisconsin, FLOTAC and Mini-FLOTAC). Aspects of these FEC techniques are discussed in more detail. Subsequently, we pay special attention to the variability of FECs due to physical (pre-analytic), laboratory (technical) and biological (host-parasite-related) parameters. Finally, we discuss the use and the interpretation of FECs for small ruminants. This review indicates a lack of detailed studies that focus on (i) diagnostic performance of FEC techniques, (ii) factors that influence FECs, and (iii) the final interpretation of these FECs. The overall aim of this thesis is to study the different aspects of the coprological diagnosis of GIN infections in small ruminants with particular emphasis on the significance, interpretation and limitations of FECs.
