Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated double antibody sandwich ELISA for detecting Toxoplasma gondii antigens in various mouse tissues, comparing it to immunohistochemistry (IHC).
- Both methods effectively detected antigens in liver, kidney, and mesenteric lymph nodes starting from the second day of infection, with increasing levels over time.
- ELISA revealed the highest antigen levels in lymph nodes by days two and four, and in the liver by day six, suggesting ELISA is a more accurate and rapid diagnostic tool for acute toxoplasmosis in humans compared to IHC.
