dc.description.abstract A total of 996 sera from women between the ages of 17-45 years were examined for Toxoplasma gondii; IgG and IgM antibodies by solid-phase-enzyme immunoassay. The overall prevalence of toxoplasmosis was found to be 39.9%. Of 996 women, 396 (39.6%) had specific IgG, 26 (2.6%) had both IgG and IgM, and 3 (0.3%) had only IgM antibodies. The results obtained in this study & other previous studies done in Turkey indicated the high prevalence of T. gondii infection in this country.
