Determinants of Ascaridoid Nematode Infection and Anisakis-Related Zoonotic Exposure Risk in Eastern Mediterranean Gadiformes Fishes. [PDF]
Larvae of ascaridoid nematodes, particularly Anisakis spp., are common parasites of commercially important marine fishes and may represent a zoonotic hazard following ingestion of raw or undercooked seafood. We investigated the ascaridoid fauna of the sympatric European hake (Merluccius merluccius) and greater forkbeard (Phycis blennoides) from the ...

Assessing allergenic potential, exposure and risk of <i>Anisakis</i> spp. [PDF]
Abstract Parasites in seafood are a recognised food safety concern worldwide. Anisakiasis is a human disease caused by ingestion of larvae of parasitic nematodes of the genus Anisakis, typically present in raw or undercooked seafood. It is considered a significant emerging foodborne disease and was recently ranked among the top 10 of 24 parasitic ...

Morphological study and molecular epidemiology of Anisakis larvae in mackerel fish
Objective: To examine and study the morphology, epidemiology, and molecular phylogeny of Anisakis larvae in blue mackerel [Scomber australasicus (Cuvier, 1832)] and Indian mackerel [Rastrelliger kanagurta (Cuvier, 1816)] using light microscope, scanning ...

Species-specific Real Time-PCR primers/probe systems to identify fish parasites of the genera Anisakis, Pseudoterranova and Hysterothylacium (Nematoda: Ascaridoidea) [PDF]
Ascaridoid nematodes belonging to the genera Anisakis and Pseudoterranova are heteroxenous parasites, involving marine mammals as definitive hosts in their life-cycles, whereas crustaceans (krill), fish and squids acting as intermediate/paratenic hosts.

Anisakiasis in italy: analysis of hospital discharge records in the years 2005-2015 [PDF]
Background Anisakiasis is a fish-borne zoonosis caused by the ingestion of marine food infected with Anisakis third-stage larvae, widespread marine parasitic nematodes. Gastrointestinal and/ or allergic clinical signs and symptoms are not specific. While
