- Toxoplasmosis is a disease caused by Toxoplasma gondii. This bacterium is classified in the phylum Apicomplexa, class Sporozoa, subclass Coccidia, order Euucoccidia, suborder Eimeria, family Sarcocystidae, dan genus Toxoplasma. It is a zoonotic disease which can affect both humans and animals. Occurrence of toxoplasmosis in animals including chicken is associated with toxoplasmosis transmission which is easily spread through food or water contaminated by T. gondii oocytes derived from the feces of cats that sporulated in the environment. Toxoplasma gondii has several stages including tachyzoites, bradyzoites, oocysts, schizonts and gametes. This study aims to determine the histology of the liver, spleen and lung of chickens which infected by 500.000 T. gondii tachyzoites into 0,5 ml PBS/chicken. This research involved 36 broiler chickens were grouped into 3 groups. Group A was infected with T. gondii through injection in intravenous, group B was infected with T. gondii through injection in subcutaneous, and group C as control (non-infected). Chickens were infected after being adapted for two weeks. Liver, spleen, and lung were taken out after necropsy at the day 2, 4, 8, 12, 16 and 26 post infections. Histology preparation samples were made at BBVET Wates and the histology examination was performed at Pathology laboratory, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine UGM. Histopathologic changes of data were analyzed descriptively. The results showed that liver, spleen, and lung of chicken in group B indicated the occurrence of congestion, but there were no cysts of T. gondii, whereas in group A and C were not showing histological changes of the organs. As the conclusion, there were no specific pathological changes leading to toxoplasmosis and there were no cyst found in the organs. The suggestions are to extend the time for the research, more cut on histology sample, doing parallel research (serologic) and PCR test.
