A total of 360 pet rabbits were investigated for the presence of antibodies and antigens of\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n                    in blood samples using a modified agglutination test (MAT) and nested PCR, respectively. Antibodies against\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n                    were found in 44 (12.12%) of pet rabbits.

The percentage of seropositive samples derived from all three sampling regions of Poland was as follows: Silesia (12.20%), Lower Silesia (6.09%), and Lesser Poland (18.03%). No statistical differences in seroprevalence were observed according to age or sex of rabbits. All tested blood samples were negative for the\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">T. gondii<\/jats:italic>\n                    B1 gene in nested PCR.
