Isolation and molecular characterization of Toxoplasma gondii in sheep and goats in Grenada, West Indies.

Veterinary parasitology, regional studies and reports - 1 Sept 2026

Chikweto Alfred, Alhasan Andy

Abstract excerpt

Sheep and goats are an importance source of meat in Grenada. The protozoan parasite, Toxoplasma gondii commonly infects small ruminants, often causing abortion and stillbirth. Toxoplasmosis is an important food borne zoonosis that is frequently acquired through consumption of undercooked meat. This study aimed to isolate T. gondii and determine its genotypes in sheep and goats in Grenada using PCR-restriction...
