Description
INTRODUCTION Toxoplasmosis is a cosmopolitan zoonotic disease caused by the parasitic protozoan Toxoplasma gondii (Chen and Tan, 2009). This parasite is an obligate intracellular organism and is found in two forms in humans. The actively proliferating tachyzoites are usually seen in the early, more acute phases of the infection. The resting forms or tissue cysts are primarily found in muscle and the brain, probably as a result of the host immune response (Garcia and Bruckner, 1997). This infection can be acquired through the eating of raw or undercooked meat containing tissue cysts or by exposure to soil, food, or water contaminated with oocysts excreted in the feces of cats or other felines infected with the parasite. The infection can also be transmitted vertically from an infected woman to a fetus during pregnancy (Tenter et al., 2000; Montoya and Liesenfeld, 2004; Remington et al., 2006).
