In Vivo and In Vitro Virulence Analysis of Four Genetically Distinct Toxoplasma gondii Lineage III Isolates
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
Toxoplasma gondii archetypes II and III are mildly virulent, yet virulence of variant strains is largely unknown. While lineage II dominates in humans in Europe, lineage III strains are present in various intermediate ...
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 ...
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 ...
Spatial epidemiology of Toxoplasma gondii infection in goats in Serbia
(Univ Naples Federico Ii, Naples, 2014)
A major risk factor for Toxoplasma gondii infection is consumption of undercooked meat. Increasing demand for goat meat is likely to promote the role of this animal for human toxoplasmosis. As there are virtually no data ...
Toxoplasma gondii in beef consumed in France: Regional variation in seroprevalence and parasite isolation
(EDP Sciences, 2019)
In France, the consumption of cattle and sheep meat appears to be a risk factor for infection of pregnant women with Toxoplasma gondii. Several nation-wide surveys in France have investigated the prevalence of T. gondii ...
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 ...
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, ...
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 ...
