Toxoplasma Gondii PCR Test - Toxoplasma Gondii PCR Blood Test

This test uses Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technology for the qualitative and/or quantitative detection of Toxoplasma gondii parasite DNA in a whole blood sample preserved in an EDTA anticoagulant tube. Detection of parasite DNA in the blood (parasitemia) is considered the most reliable indicator of an active acute infection or reactivation of infection, especially in immunocompromised individuals.
