Samples of muscle, heart, liver and lung were tested for the presence of Toxoplasma gondii using mice as a biologic detector and the carbon immunoassay (CIA) for immunological diagnosis. In positive tissues the percentage of samples positive ranged from 10 to 50% which indicates the importance of cattle in the epidemiology of Toxoplasma in Costa Rica. We discuss these findings in relation to the transmission of the parasite in Costa Rica.
