| dc.description.abstract | This study aimed to investigate the molecular prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii in minced sheep meat samples collected from retail stores in Aksaray province | |
| dc.description.abstract | Türkiye. A total of 100 samples were analyzed using PCR | |
| dc.description.abstract | and only parasite DNA was detected | |
| dc.description.abstract | with an overall prevalence rate of 15%. No statistically significant difference was observed between districts or retail sources (p>0.05). Sequencing results confirmed that the isolates showed a high level of similarity with T. gondii reference sequences. These findings suggest a potential food safety concern related to the consumption of undercooked sheep meat; however | |
| dc.description.abstract | the detection of parasite DNA alone does not confirm parasite viability or infectivity. | |
