title: [A new test for Toxoplasma gondii serology: carbon immunoassay].
abstract: Several tests with various sensitivities are available for sero-epidemiologic and diagnostic purposes in T. gondii serology. Carbon Immuno Assay test has been developed in recent years based on binding of carbon particles present in Indian ink by Toxoplasma-specific antibodies combined with Toxoplasma trophozoites. In this study, CIA test has been modified and compared with Sabin-Feldman Dye and ELISa Toxo-IgG tests.
