seroprevalence of toxoplasma gondii infection in yaks (bos grunniens) on the qinghai-tibetan plateau of china.toxoplasma gondii (t. gondii), a zoonotic parasite infects almost all warm-blooded animals and causes significant economic losses. to date, however, it is still unclear whether yaks from the qinghai-tibetan plateau of china are exposed to t. gondii. on the present study, a survey was conducted for the first time, to investigate the seroprevalence of t. gondii infection in yaks (bos grunniens) on the qinghai-tibetan plateau (qinghai, tibet, hongyuan area of sichuan province). a total of 905 and 7 ...201425085769
epidemiology of toxoplasma gondii infection in native tibetans in tibet, china.toxoplasma gondii (t. gondii) is one of the most common and widespread protozoan parasite which caused toxoplasma infection in animals and humans. toxoplasma infection in healthy people is usually asymptomatic and it can lead to serious pathological effects in congenital cases and immunodeficient patients. the aim of the study is to investigate the prevalence of t. gondii infection in native tibetans in tibet as scarce information is available on such a high plateau. a total of 600 blood samples ...201728682769
genetic characterization of toxoplasma gondii from qinghai vole, plateau pika and tibetan ground-tit on the qinghai-tibet plateau, china.the distribution of genetic diversity of toxoplasma gondii in wildlife is of interest to understand the transmission of this parasite in the environment. limited information on t. gondii genotypes has been reported in wildlife in china. the objective of this study was to carry out the genetic characterization of t. gondii isolates from wild animals on the qinghai-tibet plateau.201324192458
seroprevalence of toxoplasma gondii infection in tibetan sheep in tibet, china.abstract in the present investigation, the seroprevalence of toxoplasma gondii antibodies in 455 tibetan sheep in tibet, china, was examined using an indirect hemagglutination test. of these, 26 (5.7%) tibetan sheep were seropositive at the cut-off of 1:64 serum dilution. the seroprevalence ranged from 2.2% to 8.9% among tibetan sheep of <1-yr-old, 1- to 3-yr-old, and >3-yr-old, but the differences among the age groups were not significant (p > 0.05). the prevalence in male tibetan sheep (2.8%) ...201121787216
first report of toxoplasma gondii prevalence in tibetan pigs in tibet, china.toxoplasma gondii infection is widely prevalent in humans and animals, including pigs throughout the world. in this study, the seroprevalence of t. gondii infection in tibetan pigs in china was investigated for the first time. a total of 427 serum samples were collected from tibetan pigs in nyingchi prefecture, tibet, between april and december 2010, and were assayed for antibodies to t. gondii using the modified agglutination test (mat). ninety-seven (22.72%) pigs were found to be positive with ...201222651381
