English Abstract
A total of 107 serum samples of turkeys from ten regions in Ninevah governorate which included (Karakosh, Bartila, Kokjali, Al-Khather, Al-Manara, Alirash, Kabarly, Khazna, Bazkertan and Kharab Sultan) were collected from January 2008 till December 2008 and tested for Toxoplasma gondii antibodies by using latex agglutination test.
The total prevalence of toxoplasmosis among turkey was 76.63% (82 out of 107).
The positive agglutination titers were distributed between 1/20 – 1/320, and the highest seropositive rate at a titer 1/160 was 66.66% in Al-Khather, while lowest seropositive test at a titer 1/20 was 9.09% in Bartila.
Control measure should be taken to prevent transmission of the infection to the animals and humans by health and veterinary organizations.
