Title: Update on Canine and Feline Blood Donor Screening for Blood-Borne Pathogens Document date: 2016_1_25
ID: rb7ex6vw_60
Snippet: Toxoplasmosis. Cats are the definitive host for Toxoplasma gondii, an intracellular coccidian parasite. Although Toxoplasma gondii antigens and DNA have been detected in healthy cats by PCR assay, transmission by blood transfusion has not been documented. 107 For purposes of blood safety, the consensus of the panel is that there is no indication for screening healthy potential donor cats for T gondii antigens, antibodies, or DNA......
