Abstract EN
Congenital Toxoplasma gondii infection may lead to abortion, stillbirth, neonatal death as well as severe congenital toxoplasmosis in the newborn in¬fants.
No doubt, early and proper diagnosis of infection pregnant women or her baby pave the way to effective treatment and minimize complications.
In this study, the PCR and ELISA-IgM were used to diagnose active toxoplasmosis.
The results revealed that PCR detected very recently infection (23/70 subjects) than ELISA-IgM (18/70 ones).
However, the use of both ELISA-IgM and PCR together improved the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity
