The objective of this study was to estimate the prevalence and identify risk factors associated with the presence of Toxoplasma gondii in pig-fattening farms from Yucatan, Mexico.
A cross-sectional study was conducted with a two-stage sampling.
There were 429 pigs sampled from 39 farms randomly selected.
Blood samples were collected to obtain DNA and serum.
The presence of IgM and IgG antibodies was determined by indirect ELISA.
Prevalence was estimated by diagnostic test.
Potential risk factors to be included in a marginal logistic regression were tested by chi-square or Fisher.
The prevalence of IgM and IgG was 92.5% (397/429) (CI 89.9–95.1%) and 95.8% (411/429) (CI 93.7–97.8%), respectively.
Regarding PCR, a prevalence of 50.8% (218/429) (CI 45.9–55.6%) was found.
The logistic regression showed an association with herd size and type of feeder (P<0.05).
The risk of a case in farms with ≤400 pigs was 27.9 times higher than in farms with >400 pigs.
The manual feeder was a significant protective factor associated with the seropositive against T.
gondii.
Results indicate a high circulation of T.
gondii in pig-fattening farms from Yucatan, finding an increased risk of infection for those farms with less than 400 animals and automatic feeders.
