Anonymous. Strongyloides are not found in the region (Orenburg Oblast). This is from the feces of a 17-year-old girl. Macroscopically, parasites are not visible, only under a microscope. Video magnification 40x. Photo magnification 100x. Enterobiasis scrape negative. Has not been to hot countries. They resemble pinworms, but the small size is confusing… Can you tell me what these might be? They are moving. These are definitely nematodes, the question is which ones?
