description To improve the stool concentration procedure, we modified different steps of the standard formalin–ether concentration technique and evaluated these modifications by examining stool samples collected in the field. Seven samples were found positive by the modified formalin–ether concentration technique (M-FECT). Therefore, the M-FECT procedure provides enhanced detection of Cryptosporidium oocysts. •M-FECT enhanced the detection of Cryptosporidium oocysts.•Seven samples were found positive with low level of Cryptosporidium oocysts.•M-FECT is applicable particularly in areas of low parasite endemicity.
