Background
Toxoplasma gondii is an intracellular parasite with cosmopolitan distribution that infects the majority of warm-blooded animals. Infection in humans can cause severe ocular, neurologic, and sometimes systemic disease, especially in immunocompromised and congenitally infected individuals. Transmission of the parasite has been demonstrated in humans by the consumption of meat, vegetables and contaminated water. For all these reasons, Food and Agriculture Organization and World Health Organization declared toxoplasmosis as a foodborne parasite infection disease of global concern.
