Silvia Maria Spalding1, Maria Regina Reis Amendoeira, Carlos Henrique Klein, Luis Carlos Ribeiro.   

Abstract

Serological screening and evaluation of exposure factors for Toxoplasma gondii transmission were conducted in 2126 pregnant women from southern Brazil. Specific antibodies against Toxoplasma gondii were presented by 74.5% (n=1583) of the pregnant women evaluated. Contact with soil was found to be the major factor for infection.
