| Ten microliters of homogenized induced sputum was used to determine the total leukocyte count using a standard hemacytometer. Numbers of oocysts were determined semiquantitatively in each sample by hemacytometer, with an estimated 737,000 and 510,000 oocysts/g recovered from the submitted samples on day 1 and day 2, respectively. The new instrument usually gave a higher particle concentration than that given by the hemacytometer. |
