Studies on Experimental Ocular Toxoplasmosis in the Rabbit

Models in Ophthalmology and Vision Research

“…Injection of Toxoplasma organisms into the subarachnoidal space of the rabbit eye produced a focal retinochoroiditis, vitritis, and mild anterior uveitis 4-6 days later that persisted for 4-6 weeks; resolution occurred with an atrophic hyperpigmented scar and with persistence of organisms. Recurrences could be induced using intravenous antilymphocytic serum, normal serum, or total body radiation (Nozik and O'Connor, 1970).…”
