Feconomics®

Economical Fecal Concentrator

The most simple and the fastest way of diagnosis of intestinal parasite infections is the microscopic examination. Fecal materials generally contain a small amount of helminth eggs, protozoan trophozoites and cysts.  It is required that the protozoan eggs, cysts and trophozoites should be concentrated and the fecal material should be homogenized with the aim of enhancing the sensitivity of diagnostic methods. Feconomics enables concentration of fecal specimens in a simple way, rapidly and efficiently.  The most significant advantage of Feconomics is that centrifugation is not required.  Firstly, stool is homogenized with the homogenizing fluid, and then absorbent beads are added to the cup.  After waiting for 3 minutes, the specimen will be ready for examination.
