摘要: The most widely used technique to assess helminth infection in both domestic and wild mammals is the faecal egg count (FEC). Most efforts test reliability of FEC as a proxy for parasite load are small ruminant studies limited work has evaluated use pigs. aim this study was explore whether reliable indicator load, evaluate effects sample storage on accuracy 59 boars. Though useful assessing infections (e.g., Metastrongylus spp., Ascaris suum, Trichuris suis), stomach nematodes were often missed. decreased over time, thus it recommended that samples be processed within 5 days collection.
