The present invention represents an evolved solution which is particularly beneficial in diagnostic medicine in the field of health care, more particularly, in the routine of public or private clinical analysis laboratories, for diagnosing the elimination structure of human and animal gastrointestinal parasites, which is an important improvement in the diagnostic system of intestinal parasites by computerized analysis, and which can be used to diagnose the intestinal parasites. The method is particularly related to the enrichment process of a target excrement sample, and the purification step also comprises a double centrifugation/sedimentation process besides a known double spontaneous fluctuation process, so that the target excrement sample to be placed on a single glass slide is enriched, and proper operation gain of the diagnostic system is obtained. Because it eliminates redundancy in a logical diagnosis process of a pair of slides for each faeces sample of interest provided in a diagnostic system expect
