At Diagnopein Diagnostic, we provide accurate Toxoplasma IgG and IgM test results to help doctors differentiate between new and old infections, ensuring proper tre
The Toxoplasma IgG and IgM test is a blood test used to detect Toxoplasma gondii infection, the parasite responsible for toxoplasmosis. This infection can occur after eating undercooked meat, exposure to contaminated soil, or contact with cat feces.
The test measures two types of antibodies:
IgM antibodies – indicate a recent or active infection
IgG antibodies – indicate a past infection or immunity
Toxoplasmosis is generally mild in healthy individuals but can cause serious complications in pregnant women (risking congenital infection in the baby) and patients with weak immunity.
Fever or body ache without clear cause
Swollen lymph nodes
Fatigue or muscle pain
Unexplained miscarriage or fetal abnormalities
Weak immune system (HIV/AIDS, cancer, etc.)
Early detection through the Toxoplasma IgG and IgM test helps in preventing complications and planning the right treatment strategy.
Differentiates between recent and past infections
Prevents congenital toxoplasmosis in pregnant women
Supports accurate diagnosis for unexplained symptoms
Helps monitor treatment progress in ongoing infections
Essential screening for immunocompromised individuals
At Diagnopein, every sample is processed using advanced ELISA and chemiluminescence analyzers for the most reliable antibody detection.
The Toxoplasma IgG and IgM test is a simple blood test:
A small blood sample is drawn from your arm.
The sample is analyzed in the lab for Toxoplasma-specific antibodies (IgG and IgM).
The results determine whether the infection is recent, past, or absent.
IgM positive, IgG negative: Recent infection
IgM positive, IgG positive: Current or recent infection
IgM negative, IgG positive: Past infection or immunity
Both negative: No exposure to the infection
Toxoplasma IgG Antibody Level
Toxoplasma IgM Antibody Level
Interpretation chart for infection status
These parameters help your doctor understand whether the infection is active, old, or absent and what precautions or treatments may be required.
You should get tested if you are:
Pregnant or planning pregnancy
Experiencing symptoms suggestive of infection
Exposed to cat litter or raw meat frequently
Immunocompromised due to diseases like HIV
Advised by your doctor for infection screening

A positive IgG result indicates that you have had a past infection with Toxoplasma gondii. This generally means you are immune to future infections, but it's essential to discuss your results with a healthcare provider, especially during pregnancy.
Typically, results for the Toxoplasma IgG and IgM test can be expected within 24 to 48 hours, depending on the laboratory's processing time at Diagnopein.
No specific preparations are needed for the Toxoplasma IgG and IgM test. You can take the test at any time, and there is no need for fasting or other restrictions.
A positive IgM result indicates a recent infection with Toxoplasma gondii, suggesting that you may be currently infected and should follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and treatment.
