  1. Waste residue of indigestible material (cellulose during the previous 4 days) 2. Bile pigments and salts 3. Intestinal secretions, including mucus 4. Leukocytes that migrate from the bloodstream 6. Bacteria and Inorganic material(10-20%) chiefly calcium and phosphates. Undigested and unabsorbed food. Stool Analysis What is the stool or feces? 5. Epithelial cells that have been shade

  2. Random Collection • 1. Universal precaution • 2. Collect stool in a dry,clean container • uncontaminated with urine or other body secretions, such as menstrual blood • 4. Collect the stool with a clean tongue blade or similar object. • 5. Deliver immediately after collection

  3. Ova and parasites collection • Warm stools are best for detecting ova or parasites. • Do not refrigerate specimen for ova or parasites. • If the stool should be collect in 10 % formalin or PVA • fixative, storage temperature is not critical. • Because of the cyclic life cycle of parasites, three • separate random stool specimens are recommended.

  4. Enteric pathogen collection • Some coliform bacilli produce antibiotic substances that • destroy enteric pathogen.Refrigerate specimen immediately. • 2. A diarrheal stool will usually give accurate results. • 3. A freshly passed stool is the specimen of choice. • Stool specimen should be collected before antibiotic therapy, or • as early in the course of the disease. • If blood or mucous is present, it should be included in the • specimen

  5. Interferingfactors • Patients receiving tetracyclines, anti-diarrheal drugs, barium, bismuth, oil, iron , or magnesium may not yield accurate results. • 2. Bismuth found in toilet tissue interferes with the results. • 3. Do not collect stool from the toilet bowl.A clean, dry bedpan is the best. • 4. Lifestyle, personal habbits, environments may interfere with proper sample procurement. บิสมัส เตตร้า เหล็กทำให้อีเปลี่ยนสี, น้ำมันทำให้เกิด false steatorrhea Anti-diarrheal drug ทำให้ลักษณะของ stool เปลี่ยนจากจริง

  6. Normal values in stool Analysis Macroscopic examination Normal value Amount 100-200 g / day Colour Brown Odour Varies with pH of stool and depend on bact- erial fermentation Consistency Plastic, not unusual to see fiber, vegetable skins. Size and shape Formed Gross blood,Mucous,Pus, Parasites None มีความยืดหยุ่น

  13. Clinical Implications C. ”Pasty” stool is associated with a high fat content in the stool: 1. A significant increase of fat is usually detected on gross examination 2. With common bile duct obstruction, the fat gives the stool a putty- like appearance. 3. In cystic fibrosis, the increase of neutral fat gives a greasy, “butter stool” appearance. มีพังผืดเกิดขึ้นในถุงน้ำดี

  14. Stool Odor • Normal value Varies with pH of stool and diet. Indole and sketole are the substances that produce normal odor formed by intestinal bacteria putrefaction and fermentation. • Clinical implication. • A foul odor is caused by degradation of undigested protein. • A foul odor is produced by excessive carbohydrate ingestion. • A sickly sweet odor is produced by volatile fatty acids and undigested lactose
