Camels are one of several host species for\n T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n parasites and play an important role in the transmission of\n T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n to humans.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Objectives<\/jats:title>\n \n The present study aimed to describe the seroprevalence of\n T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n in dromedary camels (\n Camelus dromedarius)<\/jats:italic>\n from three provinces (Fars, Bushehr and Hormozgan), southern Iran first for this host.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n A total of 180 serum samples were analysed for the presence of anti\u2010Toxoplasma IgG antibodies using the enzyme\u2010linked immune\u2010sorbent assay.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n \n Our results showed an overall seroprevalence of\n T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n in 15% of animals. Antibodies to\n T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n were found in sera of 27 of 180 dromedary camels from Fars, Bushehr and Hormozgan provinces, southern Iran. Age or the gender of the camel did not significantly affect the seroprevalence (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u00a0>\u00a00.05). There was no significant association between herd\u2010level seroprevalence of\n T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n infection and abortion history, province location residence, history of animal keeping and history of contact with other animals (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u00a0>\u00a00.05).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n \n The results of this study showed the presence of\n T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n antibodies among camels in Southern Iran, which could be a public health concern. According to the prevalence of\n T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n infection in camel, the implementation of control measures to reduce infection in both definitive and intermediate hosts is needed.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/vms3.1240","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,9]],"date-time":"2023-08-09T12:34:46Z","timestamp":1691584486000},"page":"2386-2389","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Serological survey of\n Toxoplasma gondii<\/i>\n infection in the one\u2010humped camels (\n Camelus dromedarius<\/i>\n ) in the south of Iran"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"9","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1479-1723","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Azadeh","family":"Yektaseresht","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathobiology School of Veterinary Medicine Shiraz University Shiraz Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mohsen","family":"Ghane","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Sciences Veterinary School Shiraz University Shiraz Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fatemeh","family":"Atashbar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathobiology School of Veterinary Medicine Shiraz University Shiraz Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jalal","family":"Aliabadi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathobiology School of Veterinary Medicine Shiraz University Shiraz Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.20506\/rst.13.3.794"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","first-page":"65","article-title":"Serosurveillance of Toxoplasma gondii antibodies in camels at tumbool slaughterhouse, central Sudan","volume":"27","author":"Bashir H.
