Anti-toxoplasma antibodies have been studied in 268 pregnant women. Two serological tests have been used: direct agglutination, before and after treatment with 2-mercaptoethanol, and indirect immunofluorescence. Agreement between the tests is over 98%. 60.5% of women have anti-toxoplasma antibodies at first examination. This percentage remains unchanged during pregnancy. Two cases of evolving toxoplasmosis have been observed. The mode of infection in Gabon is discussed.
对268名孕妇进行了抗弓形虫抗体研究。使用了两种血清学检测方法:用2-巯基乙醇处理前后的直接凝集试验以及间接免疫荧光试验。两种检测方法之间的一致性超过98%。初次检查时60.5%的女性有抗弓形虫抗体。这一百分比在孕期保持不变。观察到两例进展性弓形虫病病例。文中讨论了加蓬的感染模式。
