Toxoplasmosis is a zoonosis caused by Toxoplasma gondii, an obligate intracellular parasite. It can cause significant morbidity and mortality in the developing fetus if the pregnant women get acute infection during pregnancy. The aim of the study was to assess the seroprevalence of Toxoplasmosis in antenatal women with bad obstetric history. The seropositivity was analysed according to age, bad obstetric history, socioeconomic and literacy status. A total of 160 antenatal women with BOH and 24 antenatal women with previous normal delivery as control group attending to Govt. General Hospital, Guntur. The serum samples were collected and tested for presence of specific IgM antibodies using a commercial ELISA kit. | Seroprevalence of toxoplasmosis in antenatal women with bad obstetric history
