Euparal as a permanent mounting medium for helminth eggs and proglottids.

ABSTRACT

The importance of euparal as a permanent mounting medium for eggs of parasites and the process of making permanent slides are analyzed and discussed in detail. Studies show that helminth eggs mounted in euparal exhibit excellent optical and drying properties. Euparal also can be used to identify proglottids of Taenia species and to examine for the presence of Trichinella spiralis in suspicious muscle biopsies.
