摘要：

The removal of human intestinal nematode eggs (specifically Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichiura and the human hookworms) was measured in two series of waste stabilisation ponds in Kenya. Egg removal was efficient despite overloaded conditions at both sites and the final effluents met the current World Health Organisation standards for unrestricted irrigation with respect to nematode eggs (less-than-or-equal-to 1 egg l-1). The distribution of eggs in the facultative pond effluents followed a Poisson distribution.
