Seroprevalence of Neospora caninum and Toxoplasma gondii infection in dogs from west and central parts of Iran using two indirect ELISA tests and assessment of associate risk factors
Authors
Abstract:
To determine the seroprevalence of anti-Neospora caninum and anti-Toxoplasma gondii antibodies indogs in Iran and to investigate related risk factors to the infection, a study was conducted in Chaharmahal vaBakhtiari, Isfahan and Khoozestan provinces, locate in west central parts of Iran. For this, 548 serum samples were collected from dogs during an 18 month period from July 2007 to February 2009. Serodiagnosis of N. caninum was carried out using a homemade indirect ELISA test and of T. gondii using an optimized indirect ELISA designed using an affinity purified 30 kDa T. gondii surface antigen (SAG1). From a total of 548 dogs, 159 (29%) were positive for N. caninum and 147 (26.8) for T. gondii. 49 (8.94%) dogs had detectable antibodies against both N. caninum and T. gondii. No sex predisposition was detected in the examined animals, but age and living places were of high importance for both N. caninum and T. gondii infections.

Toxoplasma gondii and Neospora caninum are Apicomplexan intracellular protozoa with global distribution. Small ruminants play an important role as intermediate hosts for N. caninum and T. gondii, parasites of great public health concern. The main goal of the current survey was to evaluate N. caninum and T. gondii infection rate in sheep and goats of Khuzestan Province, southwest of Iran, using ...
