Effectiveness of spiramycin in murine models of acute and chronic toxoplasmosis
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2005)
The antitoxoplasmic activity of spiramycin (SPI) was evaluated in murine models of infection using a type-1 (RH) or type-2 (Me49) strain of Toxoplasma gondii. In mice infected with 10(2) tachyzoites of the RH strain, ...
Toxoplasma gondii infection in pork produced in France
(Cambridge Univ Press, New York, 2016)
The aim of this study was to assess the seroprevalence of the Toxoplasma gondii parasite in pork produced in France, and to determine infection risk factors. An innovative survey was designed based on annual numbers of ...
Factors associated with Toxoplasma gondii infection in confined farrow-to-finish pig herds in western France: an exploratory study in 60 herds
(Biomed Central Ltd, London, 2016)
Background: Infection by Toxoplasma gondii postnatally can occur after ingestion of contaminated meat or water (tissue cysts/oocysts). In Europe, percentage of meat borne infections is estimated between 30 and 63 %, out ...
Granulopoiesis during acute Toxoplasma gondii infection in mice
(Univerzitet u Beogradu - Fakultet veterinarske medicine, Beograd, 1997)
There is little evidence for the role of granulocytes in the host defence against the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii. Thus, the purpose of this study was to assess the involvement of granulocytes during acute murine ...
Stage conversion of Toxoplasma gondii RH parasites in mice by treatment with atovaquone and pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2005)
The mouse-virulent RH strain of Toxoplasma gondii is generally considered to have lost its cyst-forming capacity, and conversion of RH tachyzoites into cysts in non-immune mice has previously been shown exclusively following ...
Detection and genotyping of Toxoplasma gondii in wild canids in Serbia
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, Clare, 2019)
To gain insight into the population structure of the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii in wildlife in Serbia, multiplex nested PCR- RFLP was performed on T. gondii DNA positive samples of heart tissue of three wild canid ...
Murine model of drug-induced reactivation of Toxoplasma gondii
(Jagiellonian Univ, Inst Environmental Sciences, Krakow, 2001)
A murine model of recrudescence of chronic toxoplasmosis, mimicking this life-threatening condition in immunosuppressed humans, was developed in Swiss-Webster mice infected 6 weeks previously with 10 cysts of the Me49 ...
Effect of refrigeration and freezing on survival of Toxoplasma gandii tissue cysts / Preživljavanje tkivnih cista Toxoplasma gondii na niskim temperaturama
(Univerzitet u Beogradu - Fakultet veterinarske medicine, Beograd, 2000)
Ingestion of Toxoplasma gondii tissue cysts is a major route of infection with this parasite in nature. The viability of brain cysts of the Me49 strain of T. gondii after storage at the usual refrigerator and freezer ...
Serologic rebounds after one-year-long treatment for congenital toxoplasmosis
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Philadelphia, 2000)
Experimental infection with Toxoplasma gondii in broiler chickens (Gallus domesticus): seroconversion, tissue cyst distribution, and prophylaxis
(Springer, New York, 2021)
Toxoplasma gondii is a widespread zoonotic protozoan that infects most species of mammals and birds, including poultry. This study aimed to investigate the course of T. gondii infection and the efficacy of diclazuril and ...
