文摘
- •
Chitin is a potential universal egg marker.
- •
A smartphone-based system for parasite faecal egg counts was constructed.
- •
Smartphone generated counts had good agreement with McMaster counts.
- •
Coefficients of variation for smartphone counts were significantly lower.
- •
The system was capable of differentiating ascarid and strongyle eggs.
