Novel polymorphic microsatellite loci in Anisakis pegreffii and A. simplex (s. s.) (Nematoda: Anisakidae): implications for species recognition and population genetic analysis

Parasitology, 2019
The species of Anisakis constitute one of the most widespread groups of ascaridoid nematodes in the marine ecosystem. Three closely related taxa are recognised in the A. simplex (s. l.) complex, i.e. A. pegreffii, A. simplex (s. s.) and A. berlandi. They

Larval migration of the zoonotic parasite Anisakis pegreffii (Nematoda: Anisakidae) in European anchovy, Engraulis encrasicolus: Implications to seafood safety

, 2016
Anisakid nematodes belonging to the species Anisakis pegreffii are distributed in a wide variety of fishes from the Mediterranean Sea and they are known to cause the human zoonosis anisakiasis.

Presence of Anisakis pegreffii in farmed sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax L.) commercialized in Southern Italy: A first report.

Veterinary parasitology, 2018
We examined 151 European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax L.) samples from farms and fish markets of Sicily (Southern Italy) for Anisakidae larvae detection. All the samples were examined by visual inspection and modified chloro-peptic digestion.

No more time to stay ‘single’ in the detection of Anisakis pegreffii, A. simplex (s. s.) and hybridization events between them: a multi-marker nuclear genotyping approach

Parasitology, 2016
SUMMARY A multi-marker nuclear genotyping approach was performed on larval and adult specimens of Anisakis spp. (N = 689) collected from fish and cetaceans in allopatric and sympatric areas of the two species Anisakis pegreffii and Anisakis simplex (s. s.

Differential proteolytic activity in Anisakis simplex s.s. and Anisakis pegreffii, two sibling species from the complex Anisakis simplex s.l., major etiological agents of anisakiasis

Acta Tropica, 2019
Proteolytic activity was studied in two sibling species of Anisakis (Nematoda: Anisakidae), A. simplex s.s. and A. pegreffii, throughout their in vitro development from third larval stage (L3) from the host fish (L3-0h) to fourth larval stage (L4) obtained in culture.

Metazoan parasite infection in the swordfish, Xiphias gladius, from the Mediterranean Sea and comparison with Atlantic populations: implications for its stock characterization

Parasite, 2014
Thirteen parasite taxa were identified in the Mediterranean swordfish by morphological and genetic/molecular methods. The comparison of the identified parasite taxa and parasitic infection values observed in the Mediterranean swordfish showed ...

An investigation of the prevalence and diversity of Anisakis in China: marine food safety implications

Frontiers in Microbiology
Anisakis can cause Anisakiasis in humans if raw or undercooked fish is consumed. Symptoms of infection may include vomiting, acute abdominal symptoms, or allergies.

Differential Cleaving of Specific Substrates for Cathepsin-Like Activity Shows Cysteine and Serine Protease Activities and a Differential Profile Between Anisakis simplex s.s. and Anisakis pegreffii, Sibling Species Major Etiologic Agents of Anisakiasis

Foodborne pathogens and disease, 2019
Humans can contract anisakiasis by eating fish or squid containing live larvae of the third stage (L3) of the parasitic nematodes of the genus Anisakis, majorly from Anisakis simplex s.s. and Anisakis pegreffii, sibling species of the A.
