Abstract:
Tested was the effectiveness of the digestive method for the isolation of Toxoplasma strains. This method was used to study the musculature of the diaphragm in 80 sheep, 40 cattle, and 80 pigs. Isolated were one strain that was pathogenic and 3 apathogenic strains for albino mice. They were found only in the diaphragm of sheep. It is believed that the digestive method is effective for the isolation of Toxoplasma strains.
Insights
The digestive method effectively isolated Toxoplasma strains from sheep diaphragm muscle. This study identified one pathogenic and three apathogenic strains in sheep, confirming the method's utility.
