[Genotypes of Toxoplasma gondii isolates from HIV positive patients in Yunnan Province].

One hundred and fifty serum samples of HIV positive patients were collected in western Yunnan Province from September 2011 to December 2012. Toxoplasma gondii B1 gene was amplified by nested PCR. Genotyping of T.

[Serological investigation of Toxoplasma gondii infection in HIV positive cases in Dali and Dehong of Yunnan].

Serum samples were collected from HIV positive cases (927) and HIV, negative ones (80) from June 2010 to August 2011 in Dali and Dehong Prefectures of Yunnan. Serum anti-Toxoplasma gondii IgG was detected by ELISA. The overall anti-Toxoplasma gondii IgG positive rate among HIV positive cases and HIV negative ones was 35.

[PCR-derived technology in gene identification and typing of Toxoplasma gondii].

Different genotypes of Toxoplasma gondii show a great diversity in pathogenicity and drug sensitivity. Application of the PCR-derived technologies in gene identification and typing of T. gondii provides an important basis to clinical diagnosis and treatment.
