Abstract
dogs of different
age groups. Lymph node aspirates were analysed with polymerase
chain reaction (PCR). Two numbers of dogs were
found to be positive by PCR. The PCR positive dogs showed
modified direct agglutination test (MDAT) titre of 1:512 and
1:4,096. The remaining sera samples showed the titre value of
less than 1:64 byMDAT andwere also negative by PCR. This
study indicates that lymph node aspirates could be an alternative
ideal specimen for the detection of T. gondii.
