Quantification of infection in IEC-18 cells exposed to sporozoites or tachyzoites.

<p>Representative fluorescent microscopy images of confluent IEC-18 cells on glass coverslips infected with <i>Toxoplasma</i> type II M4 strain sporozoites and tachyzoites for 8 hours. Parasites were stained with either mouse or rabbit anti-<i>Toxoplasma</i> antibody before and after membrane-permeabilization to identify extracellular parasites (red) and intracellular parasites (green). DAPI was used to stain nuclear DNA. Images were obtained at 40X magnification. The scale bar is 100 μm.</p
