Abstract
Stool specimens from – patients in Janakpuri superspeciality hospital were obtained and investigated for gastrointestinal parasites and same were tested for occult blood to analyse the possibility if occult blood corelates with the gastrointestinal parasites. Direct wet mount and iodine wet mounts were examined for detection of gastrointestinal parasites. Fecal occult blood was tested by a commercially available test based on gum guaiac.
