A Coprological Diagnostic Comparison Between Zinc Sulphate Floatation and Formalin:Ether Sedimentation with Two Natural Extracts (Pomegranate Molasses and Honey)
A survey of the common human intestinal parasites was conducted during the period from October 2005 to March 2006. Out of 524 faecal samples were examined by concentration methods, which includes the centrifugal flotation by Zinc Sulphate solutions and centrifugal sedimentation by Formalin-Ether an...

A survey of the common human intestinal parasites was conducted during the period from October 2005 to March 2006. Out of 524 faecal samples were examined by concentration methods, which includes the centrifugal flotation by Zinc Sulphate solutions and centrifugal sedimentation by Formalin-Ether and also by using two natural extracts, one of them from the plant product (Pomegranate molasses) and the other from animal product (Honey), after examination of both extracts by concentration method revealed that the sediment have the ability to concentrate the cysts of protozoans and ova of helminths according to the specific gravity. Zinc Sulfate flotation method showed the higher efficiency in diagnosing intestinal parasites (36.64%), while among sedimentation methods which were used in the present study Pomegranate molasses showed the higher efficiency (30.77%) when compared to other methods also have ability for slightly staining the stages of the parasites. These methods of Pomegranate molasses and Honey sedimentation can be considered as the first attempt in this field.
