Abstract

Background: Fetus in a pregnant woman is at high risk of congenital toxoplasmosis if the first exposure to TOXOPLASMA gondii occurs during pregnancy. Seroprevalence of TOXOPLASMA in pre-marriage females can reflect the high risk group in population.Objective: To identify the seropositivity rate of T. gondii in females referred to laboratory for pre-marriage examinations.Methods: This was a descriptive study performed on 400 pre- marriage females referred to Qazvin community- based medicine center in 2001. Indirect fluorescent antibody test was used to detect anti-TOXOPLASMA IgG antibody titer in sera of the study population. IgG- IFA ³ 1:20 was considered as positive.Findings: The overall seropositivity rate was 34%. Mean age of seropositive females was significantly higher than in seronegative cases (P<0.02). Seropositivity rate was indicative of a significant negative correlation with education (P<0.03). There was no meaningful difference between the rural and urban residents, statistically.Conclusion: Based on data found in our study, emphasis on educational program for WOMEN at their pre-marriage ages to prevent congenital toxoplasmosis is suggested.
