摘要: Little is known of Toxoplasma gondii infections in animals Portugal. In the present paper, we report first isolation viable T. from pigs Antibodies to were found 52 (15.6%) 333 prior slaughter using modified agglutination test (MAT) at a serum dilution 1:20. Attempts made isolate 37 seropositive pigs. Samples brain and/or heart each pig digested acid pepsin, and bioassayed into mice. Viable was isolated 15 Restriction fragment length polymorphism on products SAG2 locus amplified by PCR microsatellite analysis revealed that 11 isolates Type II four III. The results indicate phenotypically genetically are similar U.S.
