attributes.value: Type II avirulent Toxoplasma gondii strain ME-49 cysts were obtained from brains of chronically infected C57BL/6 mice. Cysts preparations were pepsin treated to eliminate potential contamination with host cells and female C57BL/6 mice were inoculated intraperitoneally with an average of 15 cysts in PBS. On day 7 post infection, lung samples were collected from individual mice using uninfected C57BL/6 mice as controls.
