This study was carried out in Central Blood Bank in Gadaref state to
detect the infection rate of toxoplasmosis and malaria. Cross sectional study
was carried out during period from May to September 2013. A total number
of 100 studied population (age between 18-47 years old) were included in
this study. Blood samples were taken from all subjects. Clinical and
parasitological data was obtained and recorded.Thirty three out from 100
(33%) and 28 out of 100 (28%) Blood samples were found to be positive for
P.falciparum when was detected by ICT and blood film respectively. On the
other hand fourteen out of100(14%) serum samples were found to be
positive for toxoplasmosis by latex agglutination test.The prevalence rate of
malaria / toxoplasmosis co-infection was detected 2 out 28 (7%). This study
indicated that the study area is highly endemic for malaria and
toxoplasmosis and the prevalence rate of malaria co-infection is refectly
high.This is highly prevalence highly dangerous complications for blood
recipients. There are many groups classified according to age and
hemoglobin concentration. Both factors were affecting on infection
especially hemoglobin concentration which is shown clearly reduction
according to destruction of red blood cells by the malaria parasite and that is
not shown in but the elder because of their having uncooked meat they can
infect with toxoplsmosis more than the other, and the other affecting factors
on distribution of both diseases contamination of the environment by cat
feces in toxoplasmosis and increase the numbers of vectors of malaria in the
rainy season in the State.
