ABSTRACT

This project is based on the determination of viability of hookworm egg S. starcolaris from ova of borine stool using the egg counts method to determine and count the number of eggs in a known amount of stool sample (drug), this is possible using the borine floatation method of egg count by Cheesbrough (2000). The egg culture techniques were also used to determine the viability of the egg present in the stool. However, there is no specification on the nature of other hookworm present in the stool, the result also showed a high level in percentage of viable eggs at 75% and this means that the prevalence in animals in very high as at the time this test was conducted.

The total egg count was 4 eggs in 5g of the sample and a larval count of 3 larval in 0.5g faecal samples used. It is suggested by this work that attention should be given in a greater percentage to environmental hygiene by man in order to reduce the infection and distribution rate of this worm by cattle in a human habited areas.
