Abstract
Toxoplasmosis, caused by Toxoplasma gondii, is a significant disease in livestock and human. Because of medical and veterinary importance it is essential to study the seroprevalence of T. gondii infection among human and animals in various area of the world. The aim of this study was to estimate seroprevalence of T. gondii in cattle in Gedarif state . A three hundred serum samples were collected from four localities :100 from Baldeyat El- Gedarif ,60 from Glabat El-Shargea ,90 from El-fashaga and 50 From Elbutana. Latex Agglutination Test(LAT) was applied to screen all serum samples for Toxoplasmosis while ELISA was also used to confirm the positive result obtained by LAT. The positive result was (41.3%) and 1% in latex and Elisa respectively. The negative result was (51.7%) in latex and 99% in Elisa. The seroprevelance of T.gondii in association with risk factor localities was Al- butana 16.7%, Baldeyat El-Gedarif (33,3%), Al-Fashaga (30%) and Al-Glabat El-Shargia (20%). Seroprevelance of T.gondii was higher in female (59.35%) than male (40.7%).%). Moreover the seroprevelance of disease in 1month to 2 year was (44%), 2-4 year (31%), 4-6 year (23%) and more than 6 year (1,7%). The Ethiopian and Umbararow breeds had low sreoprevelance (19.7%) when compared with Arshay (37%) and Butana (23.7% ).
