Potential of the Polymerase Chain Reaction in the Diagnosis of Active Toxoplasma Infection by Detection of Parasite in Blood

1 Jul 1995

Abstract excerpt

Blood samples from 54 patients presenting with acute toxoplasmic lymphadenopathy were tested for the presence of Toxoplasma gondii DNA using a nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR). PCR test results of a single blood sample obtained 2-23 weeks after onset of illness were positive for 19 (35%) of the 54 patients. Nine (53%) of 17 patients were positive by PCR when the initial blood sample was collected within the...
