Epidemiol Infect . 2015 Jun; 144(1):64-71. PMID: 26072985
A cross-sectional study was conducted from April 2013 to September 2013 to determine the seroprevalence and possible risk factors for human Toxplasma gondii infection in East Hararghe Zone, Ethiopia. Serum...

Epidemiol Infect . 2014 Apr; 143(3):608-17. PMID: 24763135
We performed a seroepidemiological study of Toxoplasma gondii infection in free-range chickens from October 2012 to May 2013. We used cross-sectional two-stage cluster sampling to collect blood samples from wing...

Dubey J, Tilahun G, Boyle J, Schares G, Verma S, Ferreira L, et al.
J Parasitol . 2013 Mar; 99(4):614-8. PMID: 23517380
Toxoplasma gondii oocysts are morphologically and antigenically similar to oocysts of another feline coccidian, Hammondia hammondi. The distinction between H. hammondi and T. gondii is important from an epidemiological perspective...

Dubey J, Choudhary S, Tilahun G, Tiao N, Gebreyes W, Zou X, et al.
Vet Parasitol . 2013 Feb; 196(1-2):206-8. PMID: 23411374
Recent studies indicate greater genetic variability among isolates of Toxoplasma gondii worldwide than previously thought. However, there is no information on genetic diversity of T. gondii from any host in...

Tilahun G, Tiao N, Ferreira L, Choudhary S, Oliveira S, Verma S, et al.
J Parasitol . 2012 Dec; 99(4):740-1. PMID: 23259902
Prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii in free-range chickens (Gallus domesticus) is a good indicator of the environmental contamination with oocysts because chickens become infected mainly by feeding from ground, feed, or...

Dubey J, Darrington C, Tiao N, Ferreira L, Choudhary S, Molla B, et al.
J Parasitol . 2012 Aug; 99(1):56-8. PMID: 22924928
Cats are important in the epidemiology of Toxoplasma gondii because they are the only hosts that excrete environmentally resistant oocysts in feces. In the present study, hearts, serum, and feces...

Epidemiol Infect . 2012 Aug; 141(5):1029-33. PMID: 22857007
Toxoplasma gondii and Bartonella spp. are zoonotic pathogens of cats. Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), and feline leukaemia virus (FeLV) are immunosuppressive viruses of cats that can affect T. gondii oocyst...
