Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of worm egg cultivation detection, in particular to a miracidium hatching observation device for detecting schistosomiasis. Background Art

[0002] Schistosomiasis is one of the major infectious diseases in my country. It is a zoonotic parasitic disease that seriously endangers human health, hinders and affects the social and economic development of epidemic areas, and is contagious, endemic and naturally zoonotic. The diagnostic methods of schistosomiasis mainly include etiological diagnosis and immunological diagnosis. The immunological diagnosis method mainly detects serum antibodies and antigens, which are mainly used as patient screening and auxiliary diagnosis methods. It cannot distinguish between current infection, past infection and identification of worm stages. Etiological diagnosis is the gold standard for the diagnosis of schistosomiasis patients. The etiological diagnosis of schistosomiasis is mainly fecal examination, and the commonly used methods are egg collection and hatching method and kato-katz method. The latter is to find eggs through direct microscopic examination, but due to the uneven distribution of eggs in feces and limited sampling volume, it is easy to miss the diagnosis of low- and moderately infected people or animals. The egg collection and hatching method has a higher detection rate than the kato-katz method due to the large sampling volume during the test. Therefore, it is currently the main method for schistosomiasis diagnosis.

[0003] When conducting egg collection and incubation methods to detect schistosomiasis, the currently commonly used top tube incubation method and nylon silk egg collection and incubation method both require observing whether the eggs have hatched into miracidia to determine the results. Schistosoma miracidia are only the size of a pinpoint (about 99μm×35μm), and conventional observation requires the naked eye. In recent years, miracidia microscopes and miracidia dynamic automatic identification systems (devices) developed by domestic research institutions have improved the detection effect, but they all require special equipment and are expensive, making them difficult to popularize at the grassroots level. Usually, the results are observed with the help of auxiliary magnifying glasses, black paper, flashlights, etc., which is inconvenient to operate. At the same time, the appropriate temperature, light intensity, and projection angle all affect the result determination.

[0004] According to the document "Healthy Hubei Action (2020-2030)", all schistosomiasis-endemic counties in the province will reach the elimination standard by 2030. In order to improve the level of risk monitoring work, ensure the quality of risk monitoring work, improve sensitivity and quality, detect schistosomiasis epidemics and potential risks of snails, and take timely intervention measures. Therefore, a convenient and economical wild feces monitoring and detection technology is urgently needed to assist the hatching method for miracidium observation. Utility Model Content
