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 Ifnar1-/-, Ifngr1-/- and Ifnar1-/-Ifngr1-/- mice were inoculated intraperitoneally with an average of 15 cysts in PBS. On day 6 post infection, whole blood, spleen, liver and lung samples were collected from individual mice using uninfected mice as controls.
