Helminth infection intensities were determined by multiplying the species-specific average egg counts from duplicate Kato Katz thick smears by a factor of 24, dividing the species-specific sum of eggs counted in the two flotation chambers by the measured weight of the preserved stool sample and multiplying the result by factor 1.2 to derive eggs per 1 g stool (EPG).
Average egg counts of the two slides was multiplied by 24 to obtain egg counts per gram of stool for each of the study participants and classes of intensity was determined for different helminth species as per the WHO recommendation [ 28].
The arithmetic mean egg count was calculated as the average egg counts (epg) of 6 Kato-Katz thick smears and classes of intensity of S. mansoni infection was determined based on this result as light (1 99 EPG), moderate (100 399 EPG) and heavy (≥400 EPG).

Using the geometric means for analysing parasitological data stabilises variances and provides the more correct "average" faecal egg count, or central tendency, for any group of animals at a particular point of time.
The average faecal egg count during the second infestation was significantly lower than the faecal egg count during the first infestation (p_value < 0.0001), which suggests that the development of a specific immune response was triggered by the first infestation, that enhanced the intrinsic resistance of the animals to subsequent infestations [ 48].
