All parasite tests will look for the following:


Nematodes (roundworms), cestodes (tapeworms or flatworms), Trematodes (flukes), Protozoa (including coccidia, Giardia and Cryptosporidium).


The sensitivity of Cryptosporidium and Giardia is increased with extra testing.

Specific bacteria screening is also included in some tests.
