[Toxoplasmosis in Martinique: epidemiological considerations].

The examination of women's 2,550 sera in Martinique (French West Indies) showed the infestation by Toxoplasma gondii was very important, for 81.5% of this population sample have fluorescent antibodies, and 84.5% haemagglutinating antibodies. Moreover, the rates of infestation observed in northern localities of the island are significantly higher than in southern ones: the intervention of climatic factors favoring the survival of the oocysts in the external environmental has to be considered, seeing that the feeding habits are identical in the whole island.
