The Toxoplasma IgG & IgM Antibodies test is a serological blood test used to detect immune response against Toxoplasma gondii, a parasitic infection commonly transmitted through undercooked meat, contaminated food/water, or cat feces.

  • IgM antibodies indicate recent or acute infection, especially important in pregnancy due to risk of congenital toxoplasmosis.
  • IgG antibodies indicate past infection or immunity and usually persist for life.

This combined test helps determine the timing of infection, assess fetal risk in pregnant women, and evaluate immunocompromised patients where reactivation may occur.
