The electrochemical meter provided a clinically useful method to detect subclinical ketosis and hypoglycaemia in lactating dairy cows. Compared with other method validation studies using the meter, we attributed the improved performance of the electrochemical meter to application of a fixed volume of blood (20 μL) to the reagent strip, use of the meter in hot ambient conditions and use of glucose oxidase as the reference method for glucose analysis.

32 samples were male and 75 were female. 64.48 % (69 samples) were positive and 35.51 % (38 samples) were negative. There was no statistically significant difference between male and female. The seropositivity rate of T. gondii increased with age (p < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between various regions of the city. The results of recent study showed the high seroprevalence of toxoplasmosis in Garmsar rather than other countries. According to high seroprevalence of Toxoplasma IgG antibodies in cats, Performing a screening test and determination IgG antibodies titer in high risk population (young girls, pregnant women) is recommended.
