Bats are reservoirs for an increasing number of emerging zoonotic viruses, such as henipaviruses and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV). However, little is known of\n T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n infection in bats. The objective of the present study was to determine the seroprevalence of\n T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n infection in bats in China. A total of 217 serum samples from 5 species of bats were collected between April, 2010, and August, 2011, from 4 provinces in China. Antibodies to\n T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n were determined using the modified agglutination test (MAT, 1:25 or higher). Antibodies to\n T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n were found in 26.5% (18\/68)\n Megaderma lyra,<\/jats:italic>\n 13.6% (12\/88)\n Rousettus leschenaulti,<\/jats:italic>\n 13.6% (3\/22)\n Cynopterus sphinx,<\/jats:italic>\n 20% (4\/20)\n Vespertilio superaus<\/jats:italic>\n , and 15.8% (3\/19)\n Pipistrellus javanicus<\/jats:italic>\n . Antibody titers ranged from 1:25 to 1:400, with titers of 1:200 detected in 4 of the 5 bat species. The present study suggests the likely occurrence of\n T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n infection in bats in China, and these bats are new putative hosts for\n T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n , which may pose a threat to human health.\n <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1089\/vbz.2012.1091","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,3,8]],"date-time":"2013-03-08T10:55:17Z","timestamp":1362740117000},"page":"422-424","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Serological Evidence of\n Toxoplasma gondii<\/i>\n Infection in Five Species of Bats in China"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Zi-Guo","family":"Yuan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences","place":["P.R.
