摘要：
The seroprevalence of anti-Toxoplama gondii antibodies in 200 captive birds in urban and pen-urban areas of district Lahore was studied by latex agglutination test. Of 200 captive birds, 20 (10%) tested positive for anti-Toxoplasma gondii antibodies. The highest seroprevalence of anti-Toxoplama gondii antibodies was observed in turkeys (16%) followed by ducks (12%), pigeons (8%) and quails (4%).
