Resumen

ISLACHIN H, Jhon; SUAREZ A, Francisco; CHAVEZ V, Amanda  y  CASAS A, Eva. Frequency in a Slaughterhouse of Seropositive Pigs to Toxoplasma Gondii From Non-Technical Pig Farms. Rev. investig. vet. Perú [online]. 2016, vol.27, n.3, pp.561-564. ISSN 1609-9117.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15381/rivep.v27i3.11991.

The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of pigs in a slaughterhouse with antibodies anti-Toxoplasma gondii from non-technical pig farms in Lima, Peru, and to assess the sex as a risk factor. Blood samples (n=240) were collected in a slaughterhouse in Lima (120 samples per sex) and the sera were analyzed by indirect immunofluorescence test (IIFT). The frequency of pigs with antibodies anti-T. gondii was 26.3%, with a confidence interval of 95% from 20.7 to 31.8%. In the analysis by sex, 26.3% of females and 30.8% of males were reactors to T. gondii. In the odds ratio test, the possible association of sex as a risk factor showed a non-significant value of 1.61
