A total of 500 stool samples were subjected to examination with the help of direct microscopy and concentration methods . Of these, fifty two (10. 4%) specimens were positive for Cryptosporidium parvum. Among direct microscopy methods direct wet mount, negative staining and modified Ziehl - Neelsen staining showed a positivity of 22 (4. 4%), 14 (2. 8%) and 39 (7. 8%) respectively. After the Formol - ether Concentration (FEC) technique, wet mount, negative staining and modified Ziehl - Neelsen stain were positive in 32 (6. 4%), 37 ( 7. 4%) and 52 (10. 4%) cases respectively. Wet mount after Saturated Sodium Chloride Salt Flotation (SSSF) technique was positive in only 6 (1. 2%) cases. Modified Ziehl - Neelsen stain after SSSF technique was positive in 19 (3. 8%) cases while negative staining after SSSF technique was positive in only 1 (0. 2%) case.
