Background: Toxoplasma parasite is from Toxoplasmatidea family that initially was seen in ctinodactylus gondii rodent. Toxoplasma parasites that extracted from different rodents are same in immunologic and morphologic characteristics but have differences in pathogenicity and genotypes in mice. The rodents and cattle are most reservoir hosts in environment that by attention of human environment vicinity to cattle and rodent’s environment causes Toxoplasma dispersion in that area. The aim of this study was Molecular detection of Toxoplasma gondii in rodents and cattle of Golestan province, northeast of Iran.
Materials and methods: In this study we collected 285 mice and 185 cattle tissues from Golestan forest and extracted brains of rodents and hearts tissues of cattle to obtain DNA from these tissues. We divided these rodents to 4 group.. Read More»
