In the Peruvian Amazon, the white-lipped peccary (Tayassu pecari) is a desirable game species and is important for the local rural economy. Blood samples from 101 white-lipped peccaries from Peru were collected from 3 different conservation areas located in the municipalities of Manu and Tambopata, southeastern region of the Peruvian Amazon. Antibodies were assayed using the modified agglutination test (MAT, cut of value of 25). Antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii were found in 89.1% (90 of 101) of animals, with titers of 1 ∶ 25 in 9, 1 ∶ 50 in 25, 1 ∶ 100 in 20, 1 ∶ 200 in 14, 1 ∶ 400 in 12, 1 ∶ 800 in 9, and 1 ∶ 3,200 in 1; 87.7% and 89.2% of males and females, respectively, tested positively, and no association (P ≥ 0.05) with gender and occurrence of antibodies was observed.
在秘鲁亚马逊地区,白唇野猪(Tayassu pecari)是一种受欢迎的猎物物种,对当地农村经济很重要。从秘鲁亚马逊地区东南部马努市和坦博帕塔市的3个不同保护区采集了101头白唇野猪的血样。使用改良凝集试验(MAT,临界值为25)检测抗体。在89.1%(101头中的90头)的动物中发现了抗刚地弓形虫抗体,其中9头的滴度为1∶25,25头为1∶50,20头为1∶100,14头为1∶200,12头为1∶400,9头为1∶800,1头为1∶3200;雄性和雌性的检测阳性率分别为87.7%和89.2%,未观察到性别与抗体出现之间的关联(P≥0.05)。
