Principal maternal infection with toxoplasmosis throughout pregnancy is frequently associated with vertical transmission to the fetus. However it is not convinced whether Toxoplasma infection can cause frequent abortion. Justification: There is no formerly published data about the occurrence of toxoplasmosis between aborted women in Atbara district. Objectives: To recognize the Seroprevalence of toxoplasmosis among aborted women in Atbara district Method: Cross sectional, descriptive study, 152 aborted women from Atbara district were examined for anti-Toxoplasma gondii antibodies, three diagnostic techniques were used (latex agglutination, ICT and ELISA). Result: Generally the Seroprevalence rate of Toxoplasma parasite between aborted women according to the techniques used; 33.6 % by latex agglutination, 22.4 % by ICT and 35.5 % by ELISA method. Conclusion: The study conclude that there was high prevalence of toxoplasmosis among the participants and indicated that ELISA is the best serological method for detection of Toxoplasma gondii infection. | |
