Abstract:
Sera from 391 waterbirds from eight USA states were tested for Toxoplasma gondii antibodies using the modified agglutination test. Fifteen different waterbird species (26.6%; n=104) were seropositive. Of the adults, 25.4% (n=52) showed a significantly higher T. gondii seroprevalence compared with juveniles (13.4%; n=17); however, sex was not a significant factor.
摘要:
使用改良的凝集测试对来自美国八个州的391只水鸟的血清进行了弓形虫抗体测试。15种不同的水鸟物种(26.6%;n=104)呈血清阳性。在成年人中,25.4%(n=52)的弓形虫血清阳性率明显高于青少年(13.4%;n=17);然而,性别不是一个重要因素。
