Contact with pigs and cats associated with high prevalence of Toxoplasma antibodies among farmers / Markku Seuri, Pentti Koskela
Sumario: Antibodies to Toxoplasma were measured by enzyme linked immunosrbent assay (ELISA) in sera from 159 abattoir workers, 142 pig farmers, and 106 grain or berry farmers. As the prevalence of antibodies among abattoir workers was about the same as among the referent farmers, it seems unlikely that infection from Toxoplasma could be acquired by mere handing of raw meat
