“…Other researchers have made comparisons between the agar plate method, and the formalin ethyl acetate, direct smear and Harada-Mori methods. They concluded that the agar plate was the most efficient method on the diagnosis of this parasite [9,3,22,12]. Feltz et al [20] stated that Baermann's and agar plate techniques also depend on the number of samples analyzed.…”

“…According to Sato et al and Dreyer et al [22,24], other factors are relevant and may contribute to a more efficient search for larvae, such as collecting feces samples on three consecutive days, which may result in increased positivity. The increase in the detection rate of S. stercoralis larvae with the agar plate method could also be due to the possibility of detection of free-living species of the larvae, which can be found in the indirect cycle [25], and also with the higher number of larvae found using this method, when compared to Baermann's method.…”

“…Improved parasitological methods, particularly the agar plate culture technique (APCT), considerably increased the detection rate, and it is currently regarded as the most sensitive fecal examination technique (1,15). However, coprodiagnosis has drawbacks, and repeat fecal examinations three or more times is required to achieve a reliable diagnosis of the infection (23). In this regard, serological diagnosis, particularly the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), has considerable advantages over parasitological methods, since only a single serum sample is required; and hence, it has been widely used as the test of choice for the diagnosis of strongyloidiasis (10,21).…”

“…Although triple stool examinations are recommended (23), it would be interesting to investigate how many more fecal sample-positive cases could be retrieved by repeated fecal sampling for analysis by APCT (among the fecal sample-negative individuals). Although concurrent parasitic infections were commonly observed in this study, two major cross-reactive parasites, O. viverini and hookworm, occurred in similar percentages of GAPT-positive and -negative individuals.…”

“…Increases in larval detection rates could be obtained by repeated stool examinations, which would reflect the intermittent nature of larval excretion and the fluctuation of larval load in the feces of S. stercoralis-infected individuals. 3,[21][22][23] However, none of the studies conducted has systematically addressed the degree of fluctuation of larval load, which could directly assess the severity of S. stercoralis infection. This study describes the follow-up stool examinations of two groups of individuals who were screened positive and negative for S. stercoralis by the agar plate culture.…”
