“…Cat bioassay was also used in some studies, and T. gondii -like oocysts were excreted from cats fed pooled meat samples. However, no further definitive procedures for theses oocysts were done in many studies (Abdel-Gawad et al ., 1984; El-Massry et al ., 1990; Hassanain et al ., 2011).…”

“…Our results can be compared with those in a 1995 study by Zhang et al (88.9% sensitivity and 95.7% specificity) (22), a 1990 study by Malik et al (62.5% sensitivity) (23), a 2007 study by Shaapan et al (49% sensitivity with local antigens from the RH strain of T. gondii ) (24), a 2011 study by Hassanain et al (61.4% sensitivity) (25) and a 2013 study by Al-Olayan (50% sensitivity) (26). The higher level of sensitivity in our study might be linked to our antigen preparation methods and to our region.…”

“…This observation is probably due to the presence of more common components in TgLA with FgA than other antigens. Moreover, TgLA is a virulent Egyptian mutton isolates (Shaapan and Khalil 2008;Hassanain et al 2011;Dubey et al 2012) while, RH strain and ME49 are isolates significantly more associated with human congenital toxoplasmosis than with animal infection (Howe and Sibley 1995).…”
