چکیده
Methods Our goal was to study the relationship between pregnant women diagnosed with acute toxoplasmosis and the presence of this parasite in their house pets. Using chemiluminescence enzyme immunoassay (CLIA) we determined the presence of toxoplasma IgM and IgG antibodies and by enzyme immunoassay (EIA) toxoplasma IgA antibodies. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine the presence of IgM and IgG toxoplasma antibodies in the cats belonging to the patients with confirmed acute toxoplasmosis.
