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 ...
Cross-sectional survey on Toxoplasma gondii infection in cattle, sheep and pigs in Serbia: Seroprevalence and risk factors
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2006)
Toxoplasmosis is a globally distributed zoonosis with a clinical impact in the unborn fetus and in the immunosuppressed individual. In Serbia, studies of risk factors for Toxoplasma gondii infection in humans have shown ...
A human origin type II strain of Toxoplasma gondii causing severe encephalitis in mice
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2006)
Despite its capacity for sexual reproduction and global distribution, Toxoplasma gondii has a highly clonal structure, with the majority of isolates belonging to three distinct clonal types. Congenital toxoplasmosis has ...
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, ...
Animal reservoirs of Toxoplasma gondii : An update in France / Animaux réservoirs de Toxoplasma gondii: état des lieux en France
(Revue Francophone des Laboratoires, 2015)
Toxoplasmosis is a disease widely distributed throughout the world. It is caused by Toxoplasma gondii, a protozoan parasite, having the Felidae as final host (the cat) and warm-blooded vertebrates as intermediate hosts. ...
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 ...
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 ...
Comparison of a commercial ELISA with the modified agglutination test for the detection of Toxoplasma gondii infection in naturally exposed sheep
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2007)
Surprisingly few commercial ELISAs are available for the detection of Toxoplasma gondii infection in animals, and none for use in sheep have been evaluated. We thus compared the Bommeli Diagnostics ELISA Toxotest for the ...
Serologic rebounds after one-year-long treatment for congenital toxoplasmosis
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Philadelphia, 2000)
