Seroprevalence of Toxoplasma gondii in wild kangaroos using an ELISA.
Infection with Toxoplasma gondii is a significant problem in Australian marsupials, and can lead to devastating disease and predispose animals to predation. T. gondii infection in kangaroos is also of public health significance due to the kangaroo meat trade. A moderate seroprevalence of T. gondii was observed in a study of western grey kangaroos located in the Perth metropolitan area in Wester...
متن کاملToxoplasma gondii
A total of 349 human serum samples were examined for anti-Toxoplasma antibodies by the Murex Single Use Diagnostic System (SUDS) qualitative screening test, indirect hemagglutination assay (IHA), and indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA). Concordant results with SUDS and IHA were obtained for 91.9% of serum samples; 8.9% were SUDS+ and IHA-; none were SUDSand IHA+. Comparison of the SUDS assa...

The performance of a direct agglutination test for the detection of toxoplasma specific IgG immunoglobulin was compared with that ofthe latex agglutination test. The direct agglutination test was less sensitive but more specific than the latex agglutination test. Quantitative results were not directly comparable, reflecting the different antibody profiles detected in each assay. The direct aggl...
متن کاملUse of monoclonal antibodies in an ELISA to detect IgM class antibodies specific for Toxoplasma gondii.
Two monoclonal antibodies CH6 and C1E3 were used in an antibody class capture assay for the detection of IgM antibodies specific for Toxoplasma gondii. CH6 was used on the solid phase to capture human IgM. After a Toxoplasma gondii antigen had been added, specifically bound material was detected using C1E3 coupled to horseradish peroxidase. The assay was compared with an established system usin...
متن کاملPreliminary Assessment of Elisa, Mat, and Lat for Detecting Toxoplasma Gondii Antibodies in Pigs
Applicability and sensitivity of the commercial tests MAT (modified agglutination test), LAT (latex agglutination test), in comparison to in-house serologic assay (ELISA), and reference test (indirect fluorescence antibody test, IFAT) to detect specific antibodies against Toxoplasma gondii in pigs were investigated. One hundred and six blood samples were examined. The most specific test, as com...
