Toxoplasma antibodies in local domestic animals

211 sera obtained from domestic animals generally used for human consumption in this area, were tested for Toxoplasma antibodies by the Indirect Haemagglutination Test (IHA). Goat (34.4%) and pig sera (26.6%) showed a higher prevalence as compared to cattle (16.6%) and sheep (7.4%). Obviously, proper precautions at every stage of the preparation of a meat dish are necessary to avoid Toxoplasma infection.
