isolation and molecular characterization of toxoplasma gondii strains from rats in tehran
background toxoplasma gondii is a unicellular apicomplex organism, belonging to the toxoplasma genus. the parasite infects humans, as well as mammalians and different species of birds, and it can be propagated in a wide range of host cells. there have been no appropriate molecular or serological studies carried out previously in iran on the prevalence of toxoplasma gondii in rodents. objectives...
متن کاملIsolation and molecular characterization of Toxoplasma gondii from chickens and ducks from Egypt.
The prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii in free range chickens is a good indicator of the prevalence of T. gondii oocysts in the environment because chickens feed from the ground. In the present study, prevalence of T. gondii in 121 free range chickens (Gallus domesticus) and 19 ducks (Anas sp.) from a rural area surrounding Giza, Egypt was assessed. Blood, heart, and brain from each animal were ex...
متن کاملIsolation and biological and molecular characterization of Toxoplasma gondii from canine cutaneous toxoplasmosis in Brazil.
Cutaneous toxoplasmosis is a rare manifestation. This study represents a case report of an immunosuppressed dog that developed nodular dermal lesions caused by Toxoplasma gondii. The isolate (TgDgBr20) was characterized as mouse virulent and was genotyped as type BrI (ToxoDB genotype 6) using PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and as Africa 1 through microsatellite analysis.
متن کاملMolecular Identification of Toxoplasma gondii in the Native Slaughtered Cattle of Tehran Province, Iran
Background: Toxoplasmosis, caused by Toxoplasma gondii, is a common parasitic disease, affecting almost one-third of the world’s population. It is transmitted by ingestion of food or water contaminated with oocysts excreted by cats and the consumption of raw or undercooked meat from ruminants. This study aimed at molecular characterization of T. gondii in native cattle from West of Tehran, Iran...
متن کاملToxoplasma gondii infections in chickens from Venezuela: isolation, tissue distribution, and molecular characterization.
The prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii, in free-ranging chickens is a good indicator of the prevalence of T. gondii oocysts in the soil because chickens feed from the ground. The prevalence of T. gondii in 46 free-range chickens (Gallus domesticus) from Venezuela was determined. Antibodies to T. gondii were assayed by the modified agglutination test (MAT). Antibodies were found in 16 (32%) chicken...
