Seroprevalence of antibodies IgG/IgM anti-T. gondii in women of Coro, Venezuela

Abstract: Studies show a high frequency of IgG against T. gondii. The aim was to evaluate the seroprevalence of IgG and IgM anti-T. gondii in 522 women. 13% of seropositivity IgG+/IgM- and 0.7% IgG+/IgM+ was found. This could be due to the climate characteristics who may decrease the transmission. W...
