Samples will not be processed until payment is received.
FEC-MCM — Quantitative Fecal Egg Count (Modified McMaster)
Routine quantitative fecal egg count using the Modified McMaster method.
Used to assess parasite egg shedding, guide strategic deworming decisions, and monitor parasite control programs.
Recommended for: sheep, goats, horses, cattle
Not recommended for: camelids, avian species, swine
Volume pricing (per sample)
Pricing is based on the total number of FEC-MCM samples submitted in this shipment:
1–4 samples: $20 per sample
5–9 samples: $18 per sample
10+ samples: $15 per sample
Ordering instructions
Purchase one unit per sample submitted
Select the correct pricing tier and quantity based on the number of FEC-MCM samples listed on your submission form
Mixed species and multiple test types may be included on the same form
Submit ONE Sample Submission Form per shipment and include your order number with your samples
Orders submitted under an incorrect pricing tier may be adjusted prior to testing.
FEC-HS — Quantitative Fecal Egg Count (High Sensitivity)
High-sensitivity quantitative fecal egg count for species or situations where low egg shedding is expected.
The laboratory selects the most appropriate high-sensitivity method (Modified Wisconsin or Modified Stoll) based on species and parasites of concern.
Recommended for:
Alpacas and llamas (camelids)
Poultry and other avian species
Swine (pigs)
Dogs and cats when higher sensitivity is needed
May be requested for any species when low egg shedding is expected.
Pricing
$30 per sample
Ordering instructions
Purchase one unit per sample submitted
Mixed species and multiple test types may be included on the same form
Submit ONE Sample Submission Form per shipment and include your order number with your samples
Important notes
The specific high-sensitivity method is selected by the laboratory
Turnaround time may be longer than routine fecal egg counts due to extended processing
BAER — Baermann Lungworm Test
Baermann testing is used to detect lungworm and other larval parasites in fecal samples.
This test is not a routine fecal screening and is recommended when lungworm infection or larval parasites are suspected.
Pricing
$25 per sample
Ordering instructions
Purchase one unit per sample submitted
Mixed species and multiple test types may be included on the same form
Submit ONE Sample Submission Form per shipment and include your order number with your samples
Important notes
Requires extended processing time
• • Turnaround time may be longer than routine fecal testing
QUAL-SCR — Qualitative Fecal Parasite Screen
Qualitative fecal parasite screening to assess the presence or absence of common gastrointestinal parasites.
The laboratory selects the most appropriate flotation method (sugar or zinc sulfate) based on species and parasites of concern.
Recommended for: dogs and cats
May be requested for any species as a qualitative screening test.
Pricing
$22 per sample
Ordering instructions
Purchase one unit per sample submitted
Mixed species and multiple test types may be included on the same form
Submit ONE Sample Submission Form per shipment and include your order number with your samples
Important notes
This is a qualitative screen only and does not provide eggs per gram
For quantitative results or parasite monitoring programs, select a fecal egg count (FEC) test instead
FECRT — Fecal Egg Count Reduction Test
Fecal Egg Count Reduction Testing (FECRT) evaluates dewormer efficacy using paired pre- and post-treatment quantitative fecal egg counts.
This test is used to assess treatment effectiveness and detect potential anthelmintic resistance.
What’s included
One pre-treatment quantitative fecal egg count
One post-treatment quantitative fecal egg count
Percent egg count reduction calculation and interpretation
Pricing (per animal)
Select the option that matches the fecal egg count method required:
$35 — Modified McMaster FEC
(sheep, goats, horses, cattle)$60 — High-Sensitivity FEC
(camelids and other low egg-shedding species)
Ordering instructions
Purchase one FECRT per animal tested
Submit paired pre- and post-treatment samples from the same animal
Mixed species and multiple test types may be included on the same form
Submit ONE Sample Submission Form per shipment and include your order number with your samples
Important notes
Timing of post-treatment sampling is critical for accurate interpretation
FECRT results should be interpreted in the context of species, drug used, and management practices
Step 3 – Sample Collection & Labeling
Please follow these guidelines to ensure accurate testing and fast turnaround:
· Collect fresh feces (within 24 hours of collection)
· Avoid contamination with bedding, soil, or water
· Place each sample in a clean, leak‑proof container or zipper bag
· Label each sample clearly with Animal ID or name
Recommended Sample Amounts
· Quantitative fecal egg count: at least 4 grams
· Qualitative fecal parasite screen: at least 4 grams
· Baermann lungworm test: 10–15 grams
