Toxoplasma gondii is a common parasite that infects many animals including humans. It is usually asymptomatic in a healthy host. However, immunocompromised individuals, including the human fetus, are highly susceptible to infection from this agent - often with serious result.
ViroStat has released a new set of Monoclonal antibodies to T. gondii. Four different antigen specificities are available including SAG1 and MIC 3.
All antibodies function in ELISA, IFA and western blot immunoassay. These new antibody tools offer the potential for rapid antigen detection as well as by serology.
