Toxoplasmagondii has worldwide distribution and has been identified for the first time in North African rodent named Ctenodactylus gondii which confer Toxoplasma species name. The parasitedefinitive hostsare cats and other certain felines. Toxoplasma infection in human adults proceeds to a benign self limited infection. However, their tissue cysts remain for years.

The most serious form of Toxoplasma infection is Congenital Toxoplasmosis which accompanied serious fetal complication based on gestational age at the time of infection. Maternal infection during early pregnancy (first trimester) leads to abortion and still birth. If the infection occurs during second trimester, irreversible complications like intracranial calcifications, hydrocephaly, microcephaly, neurological problems, etc., will occur and affected survivors suffer from mental retardation. Toxoplasma infection during third trimester is accompanied with eye complications like chorioretinitis. Consequently, diagnosis of Toxoplasma infection during pregnancy is crucial. Nowadays, Immunofluorescence and ELISA techniques are used for the diagnosis of anti Toxoplasma IgM and IgG antibodies. Since anti Toxoplasma IgG antibodies are generally found in normal population, To diagnose of acute Toxoplasma infection reliably, two separate serum samples taken 10 days apart are used to demonstrate specific anti -Toxoplasma IgG titer rising. Demonstration of specific anti-Toxoplasma IgM antibody in individual sample is the alternative serological technique for diagnosis of acute Toxoplasma infection. The Pishtazteb (PT) Toxo- IgG- ELISA kit has high sensitivity and specificity for detection of antiToxoplasma IgG.
