  • Title: Prevalence of antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii in wolverines from Nunavut, Canada.
    Author: Reichard MV, Torretti L, Garvon JM, Dubey JP.
    Journal: J Parasitol; 2008 Jun; 94(3):764-5. PubMed ID: 18605808.
    Abstract:
    The prevalence of antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii was determined in blood and tissue exudates recovered from the spleens of 41 wolverines (Gulo gulo) collected in Nunavut, Canada, using a modified agglutination test (MAT). Antibodies to T. gondii were found in 17 (41.5%) of the 41 wolverines with MAT titers of 1:25 in 1, 1:50 in 4, 1:100 in 5, 1:200 in 6, and 1:400 in 1. This is the first report of antibodies to T. gondii in wolverines, and the results indicate that exposure is common.
