Blood samples (1 mL) were processed using the indirect hemagglutination test to detect serological IgG and IgM antibodies against T. gondii. The frequency of IgG antibodies against T. gondii was found to be 15.2%, while the frequency of IgM antibodies againstT. gondii was 3.2%. A significant association was observed between the age of the cat and the serological frequency of T...
