Anisakis Nematodes in Fish and Shellfish- from infection to allergies

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2019
Anisakidosis is a zoonotic parasitosis induced by members of the family Anisakidae. The anisakid genera includes Anisakis, Pseudoterranova, Hysterothylacium and Contracaecum. The final definitive hosts of these nematodes are marine mammals with a complex

Nematode Infections in Commercially Important Squid Species: Distribution Patterns and Food Safety Issues

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 72, Issue 7, Page 612-619, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Cephalopods represent a valuable fishery resource worldwide and play a crucial role in the marine food chain both as predators and prey but also as paratenic hosts for the transmission of Ascaridoids, including zoonotic nematodes of the Anisakidae family.

Preliminary Data on the Occurrence of Anisakis spp. in European Hake (Merluccius merluccius) Caught Off the Portuguese Coast and on Reports of Human Anisakiosis in Portugal

Microorganisms, 2022
Parasitic nematodes of the genus Anisakis are among the most important biological hazards associated with seafood. A survey of Anisakis spp. in European hake (Merluccius merluccius) was undertaken as this species is a staple of the Portuguese diet ...

Anisakis spp. as indicators of latitudinal movements of short‐finned pilot whales, Globicephala macrorhynchus, in the Northeast Atlantic

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 41, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract In the Northeast Atlantic, it is unclear whether short‐finned pilot whales, Globicephala macrorhynchus (SFPWs), are transient or resident above 40°N. We used Anisakis spp. to identify the latitudes recently visited by a SFPW pod stranded in NW Spain (43°N) in 2020.

Wolbachia in Antarctic terrestrial invertebrates: Absent or undiscovered?

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 16, Issue 6, December 2024.
Endosymbiotic bacteria Wolbachia are recognized for their role in influencing host survival and stress resistance, particularly in cold environmental conditions across various species. However, our analysis of available data reveals a notable absence of Wolbachia in species abundant in the extreme cold conditions of Antarctica.

Re‐evaluation of certain aspects of the EFSA Scientific Opinion of April 2010 on risk assessment of parasites in fishery products, based on new scientific data. Part 2

EFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 11, November 2024.
Abstract The objective of this opinion was to determine if any wild caught fish species, originating from specific fishing grounds and consumed in the EU/EFTA could be considered free of zoonotic parasites. In this Opinion the term ‘fishery products’ only refers to fresh finfish.

Mullus barbatus L. and Mullus surmuletus L. from western Mediterranean waters (SE Spain) are infected by Hysterothylacium fabri, but not by zoonotic nematodes. Possible impact on fish hosts#

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 47, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract In order to know whether there is a risk of anisakiasis (or anisakidosis) by consumption of fish of the genus Mullus from the western Mediterranean Sea, which are appreciated for their quality, an epidemiological survey was carried out to evaluate the occurrence of zoonotic or potentially zoonotic nematodes in M. barbatus and M.

Temperature and humidity as drivers for the transmission of zoonotic diseases

Animal Research and One Health, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 323-336, August 2024.
This review examines how temperature and humidity influence the transmission dynamics of major zoonotic diseases. Many prominent zoonotic pathogens display seasonal patterns linked to climate variability. Increased transmission risks are generally associated with temperatures within suitable ranges, while excessively high or low temperatures have ...

Anisakidae in fishing products sold in Sicily

Italian Journal of Food Safety, 2014
One of the parasite diseases associated with the consumption of raw fish that occurs with some frequency is the anisakiasis, a human disease caused by the accidental ingestion of larval nematodes of the genus Anisakis, family Anisakidae.
