A. Obtain the specimen from two parts of the stool B. Obtain the specimen from the middle of the stool. C. Place the whole stool specimen in the specimen container. D. Include any liquid stool

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

A. Obtain the specimen from two parts of the stool. Collecting from two different areas increases the chance of identifying parasites or their ova, as they may not be uniformly distributed in the stool.

B. Obtain the specimen from the middle of the stool: This limits the potential for detecting parasites in other areas of the stool.

C. Place the whole stool specimen in the specimen container: Typically unnecessary and may overfill the container, causing contamination.

D. Include any liquid stool: While liquid stool may be relevant, the sample should still come from multiple areas.
