弓形虫感染是一个全球性的问题，影响了世界范围内的各种温血动物和人类，包括家禽。家鸟和伴侣鸟被认为在T的传播中起重要作用。gondiito人类和其他动物。然而，关于T.兰州地区家禽感染弓形虫病的情况。因此，本研究旨在确定T.方法本研究对兰州地区家禽弓形虫感染情况进行了调查。413例患者存在弓形虫抗体（笼养305只，散养108只）成年鸡，334只应用改良凝集试验（MAT）对兰州地区111只笼养成年鸭和223只散养成年鸽进行了检测鸡、鸭和鸽的T阳性率分别为7.26%、11.38%和11.86%。弓形虫抗体的临界值为1：5。笼养鸡和散养鸡的发病率分别为6.23%和10.19%，但经统计学分析，差异不显著（P0.05）。笼养鸭和散养鸭的血清阳性率分别为6.31%和13.90%，但差异不显著（P0.05）。在兰州市家禽市场出售的成年鸡、鸭和鸽子中发现了弓形虫感染，这对T.人类和该地区其他动物的弓形虫感染。这是首次对T.本地区家禽的弓形虫感染。
BackgroundToxoplasma gondiiinfection is a global concern, affecting a wide range of warm-blooded animals and humans worldwide, including poultry. Domestic and companion birds are considered to play an important role in the transmission ofT. gondiito humans and other animals. However, little information onT. gondiiinfection in domestic birds in Lanzhou, northwest China was available. Therefore, this study was performed to determine the seroprevalence ofT. gondiiinfection in domestic birds in Lanzhou, northwest China.MethodsIn the present study, the seroprevalence ofT. gondiiantibodies in 413 (305 caged and 108 free-range) adult chickens, 334 (111 caged and 223 free-range) adult ducks and 312 adult pigeons in Lanzhou, northwest China, were examined using the modified agglutination test (MAT).Results30 (7.26%) chickens, 38 (11.38%) ducks and 37 (11.86%) pigeons were found to be positive forT. gondiiantibodies at the cut-off of 1:5. The prevalences in caged and free-range chickens were 6.23% and 10.19% respectively, however, statistical analysis showed that the difference was not significant (P 0.05). The seroprevalences in caged and free-range ducks were 6.31% and 13.90% respectively, but the difference was not statistically significant (P 0.05).ConclusionsThe results of the present survey indicated the presence ofT. gondiiinfection in adult chickens, ducks and pigeons sold for meat in poultry markets in Lanzhou, northwest China, which poses a potential risk forT. gondiiinfection in humans and other animals in this region. This is the first seroprevalence study ofT. gondiiinfection in domestic birds in this region.
