Pooling as a strategy for the timely diagnosis of soil-transmitted helminths in stool: value and reproducibility
BACKGROUND: The strategy of pooling stool specimens has been extensively used in the field of parasitology in order to facilitate the screening of large numbers of samples whilst minimizing the prohibitive cost of single sample analysis. The aim of this study was to develop a standardized reproducib...
