Study of Tissue Cyst Formation Time of Toxoplasma gondii in Mice
The purpose of the research was to study a tissue cyst formation time Toxoplasma gondii experimentally. A number of 84 mice were divided randomly into four groups. Each group consisted of 21 mice. The mice of the group I were infected with 10 1 , II with 10 2 and III with 10 tachyzoites respective...

| Summary: | The purpose of the research was to study a tissue cyst formation time Toxoplasma gondii
experimentally. A number of 84 mice were divided randomly into four groups. Each group consisted of 21
mice. The mice of the group I were infected with 10

, II with 10
2
and III with 10
tachyzoites respectively
intraperitoneally, whereas the group IV as a control (not infected with tachyzoites). All infected mice
were treated with sulfadiazine, 15 mg/mouse per oral diluted in drinking water, for 5 days. On first until
twenty first day after treatment one mouse of each group was necropsied. Liver, lymph, kidney, lung,
heart, brain, or diaphragm muscle were then taken for histological preparations. Data on tissue cyst
formation time was analysed descriptively. The research revealed that innoculation with tachyzoites 10

found.
