feces
This term is the standard clinical and scientific designation for bowel waste, carrying a sterile, objective tone. It is preferred in medical reports, veterinary diagnostics, and biological research to avoid the colloquial or vulgar connotations associated with common synonyms.
Grammatically, the word is a mass noun that functions as a plural in form but is typically treated as uncountable in modern English usage. Because it lacks a standard singular form in common parlance, speakers use partitive constructions such as a sample of feces or a specimen of feces when referring to a specific quantity.
