The diagnostic of T. gondii infection is one of the most interesting features of the disease for investigators, since parasitological diagnostic is difficult to reach in the early period of the infection. The diagnostic is exclusively based in the detection of serum specific antibodies (IgG, IgM, IgA, IgE) and more recently, in the avidity of serum IgG. No matter the high specificity and sensitivity of the test used for diagnostic, one test sample is not enough to inform us about the antibody type as a parameter for early or late period of infection.
弓形虫感染的诊断是该疾病最吸引研究者之处,因为在感染早期很难进行寄生虫学诊断。诊断完全基于血清特异性抗体(IgG、IgM、IgA、IgE)的检测,最近还基于血清IgG的亲和力。无论用于诊断的检测方法具有多高的特异性和敏感性,仅一个检测样本不足以告知我们作为感染早期或晚期参数的抗体类型。
