            Objective: This study aimed to optimize the conditions B1 gene amplification (35 copies in the genome) for the detection of T gondii DNA in probable cases of cerebral toxoplasmosis. Materials y methods: DNA extraction was performed from the peritoneal exudate of mice inoculated with the RH strain of T. gon d ii obtaining an initial 17 mL to 1x10 7 parasites/mL. PCR conditions yielding B1 gene amplification of a fragment of 132 bp DNA obtained from serial dilutions from 1x106 to 1x10-1 parasites per ml were optimized, setting a limit of detection of 1 T. gon d ii tachyzoite. Resulted: B1 gene amplification of a fragment of 132 bp DNA obtained from serial dilutions from 1x10 6 to 1x10 -1 parasites per mL were optimized, setting a limit of detection of 1 T. gon d ii tachyzoite.
