First stage larvae per gram (L₁p.g.] of faeces : an efficient method of diagnosing nematode parasites of sheep ante mortem’, Onderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research, vol. 57, no. 4, pp. 277-280.0330-2465http://hdl.handle.net/2263/41862The articles have been scanned in colour with a HP Scanjet 5590; 600dpi. Adobe Acrobat XI Pro was used to OCR the text and also for the merging and conversion to the final presentation PDF-format.Nematode eggs were collected by mixing the faeces with a sugar solution, filling a flat-sided medicine bottle (100 ml), and allowing eggs to float and adhere to the upper surface for 30 min. After discarding the faeces, eggs hatched within 24 h at 20-30⁰C. Each genus was counted in a counting chamber and the L₁p.g. estimated. The morphology of L₁ of Haemonchus, Teladorsagia, Trichostrongylus, Oesophagostomum and Strongyloides is briefly described.en©South Africa.
