Synopsis

The disease caused by the Toxoplasma gondii parasite is termed as toxoplasmosis. A few of its symptoms are body aches, headache, fever and fatigue. Transmission of this parasite can occur through exposure to infected cat feces, consumption of contaminated meat which has not been cooked adequately, and from a mother to her child during pregnancy. The risk factors for toxoplasmosis are taking immunosuppressant medications, chemotherapy and HIV/AIDS. Most healthy people do not require serious medical help, but people with a weakened immune system are at risk of suffering from severe complications such as seizures and encephalitis. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to the research on toxoplasmosis. It presents studies on this disease in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. This book includes contributions of experts and scientists which will provide innovative insights into this field.
