OBJECTIVE: In this study, the serological results of the patients who applied with the suspicion of toxoplasmosis in Kâtip Çelebi University Atatürk Training and Research Hospital in 2012 were evaluated to contribute to the toxoplasmosis sero-prevalence in our city, İzmir. METHODS: The results of Anti-T. gondii IgG in 2942 serum samples and Anti-T. gondii IgM in 3899 serum samples that were sent by various clinics to our laboratory between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2012, for the researching of the the presence of anti-T. gondii IgM and IgG antibodies were retrospectively investigated. The avidity value were searched in the serums in which Anti-T. gondii IgM antibodies were determined. RESULTS: In 106 serum samples (2.7%) Anti-T. gondii IgM antibodies, in 954 serum samples (32.4) anti T. gondii IgG antibodies were found. The avidity value was low in the eight (7.5%) and the avidity value was high in eighty-eight (83%) in the serum samples which were studied with the Anti-T. gondii IgG avidity test. CONCLUSION: In this study in which we evaluated the anti-T. gondii tests of the year 2012 retrospectively, the prevalence of anti-T. gondii IgM and IgG antibodies were fond in order of 2.7-32.4%.
