The first isolation and molecular characterization of Toxoplasma gondii from horses in Serbia.Published in
Parasit Vectors 2017; 10(1):167Publiekssamenvatting
Consumption of undercooked or insufficiently cured meat is a major risk factor for human infection with Toxoplasma gondii. Although horsemeat is typically consumed rare or undercooked, information on the risk of T. gondii from infected horse meat to humans is scarce. Here, we present the results of a study to determine the presence of T. gondii infection in slaughter horses in Serbia, and to attempt to isolate viable parasites.PMID
