The result was confirmed by third test using molecular test conventional PCR to show the result 32 (51.61%). We used EDTA tube for whole blood for PCR, gel tube for serological testes. Three methods of tests to search for toxoplasmosis latex test, combo IgG and IgM rapid cassette and finally by PCR. | ||
