[A modified dye test for Toxoplasma gondii infection].

A modified dye test with microplate was to be established to detect Toxoplasma antibodies with cell-cultured Toxoplasma gondii. Numbers of stained and unstained tachyzoites were estimated in every 100 tachyzoites in each well after dyeing with methylene blue. The dilution with 50% tachyzoites stained was used as final dilution. Better results of the microplate dye test has been received when the concentration of tachyzoites in suspension reaches 10(9)/ml with 1% sodium citrate as accessory factor.
