Abstract

The Biological Resource Center (BRC) for Toxoplasma gondii is a certified structure (NF S96-900 standard) that manages the storage of Toxoplasma gondii strains (protozoan parasite) and strain derivatives from human or animal toxoplasmosis to make them available to the scientific community.
