In the Taipei Zoo, toxoplasmosis was diagnosed in ring\u2010tailed lemurs and a meerkat in 2019 while a freeze\u2013thaw meat strategy had been applied to carnivores before the event. To investigate the possible risk factors associated with <jats:italic>T.\u00a0gondii<\/jats:italic> infection in the Taipei Zoo, 179 veterinary visiting mammals from 2019\u20132021 and six stray cats were included to detect anti\u2010<jats:italic>T.\u00a0gondii<\/jats:italic> IgG and IgM in their serum via ELISA, and <jats:italic>T. gondii<\/jats:italic> in their faeces and blood via PCR. Although the overall <jats:italic>T.\u00a0gondii<\/jats:italic> IgG seroprevalence was 33.5% and PCR positivity was 16.2% in the zoo mammals, the correlation between <jats:italic>T.\u00a0gondii<\/jats:italic> PCR and systemic IgG results was low. An omnivorous diet (adjusted OR\u00a0=\u00a00.4; 95% CI: 0.2\u20131.0), a herbivorous diet (adjusted OR\u00a0=\u00a03.2; 95% CI: 1.1\u20139.6), and animals in the Conservation Area where stray cats appeared (adjusted OR\u00a0=\u00a018.3; 95% CI: 3.9\u201385.9) were independent risk factors for <jats:italic>T.\u00a0gondii<\/jats:italic> infection. The low <jats:italic>T.\u00a0gondii<\/jats:italic>\u2010specific IgM positivity (0.6%) suggests that most animals did not have acute <jats:italic>T.\u00a0gondii<\/jats:italic> infection. In conclusion, our findings indirectly support that feeding frozen meat to carnivores, cleaning fresh food, and restricting access to stray cats to prevent faecal contaminants could prevent animals from <jats:italic>T.\u00a0gondii<\/jats:italic> exposure.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/zph.12987","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,7,12]],"date-time":"2022-07-12T10:42:30Z","timestamp":1657622550000},"page":"904-914","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Molecular and serological detection of <i>Toxoplasma gondii<\/i> infection in mammals in the Taipei Zoo"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"69","author":[{"given":"Chin\u2010Wei","family":"Hsu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate Institute of Molecular and Comparative Pathobiology, School of Veterinary Medicine National Taiwan University  Taipei Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Pao\u2010Jung","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Taipei Zoo  Taipei Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Pei\u2010Yun","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Taipei Zoo  Taipei Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chen\u2010Yeh","family":"Lien","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Taipei Zoo  Taipei Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Li\u2010Hsin","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Taipei Zoo  Taipei Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yen\u2010Hsueh","family":"Lai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Taipei Zoo  Taipei Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jun\u2010Cheng","family":"Guo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Taipei Zoo  Taipei Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4971-4237","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yen\u2010Chen","family":"Chang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate Institute of Molecular and Comparative Pathobiology, School of Veterinary Medicine National Taiwan University  Taipei Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chiu\u2010Hung","family":"Cheng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Taipei Zoo  Taipei Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hui\u2010Wen","family":"Chang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate Institute of Molecular and Comparative Pathobiology, School of Veterinary Medicine National Taiwan University  Taipei Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,7,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1638\/2013\u20100032.1"},{"issue":"3","key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","first-page":"430","article-title":"Molecular and serological detection of Toxoplasma gondii in stray cats in shiraz, south\u2010central, Iran","volume":"13","author":"Asgari Q.","year":"2018","journal-title":"Iranian Journal of Parasitology"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s13071\u2010020\u201004445\u2010z"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.actatropica.2018.08.005"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","unstructured":"Bio\u2010Rad Laboratories Inc.
