Medical / Laboratory Instructions
English term or phrase: Parapak stool
Instructions for collection of stool specimens for ova and parasite examination using "parapak stool"

Is this a proper name Parapak or simply a made-up word that means containers for transport of stool specimens?

Any assistance is appreciated.

Explanation:
Hola María,

A ver si esto te ayuda. El \'stool\' se refiere a la \'deposición\' o la muestra de heces.

Parapak puede usarse para describir el tipo de frasco colector y el método que se usa. Los frascos Parapak son recipientes con tapa verde para muestras biológicas específicas.

Suerte,

JL

Bien lo dice Maestro Oso (no lo conozco pero después de los foros, ya lo quiero):
