Determinants of Ascaridoid Nematode Infection and Anisakis‐Related Zoonotic Exposure Risk in Eastern Mediterranean Gadiformes Fishes

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
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 ...

A newly recognized paratenic host of Paragonimus spp.

Japanese Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1983
The possibility of albino rats as the hosts of 3 species of the lung-flukes is experimentally detected. Rats were each orally infected with 10 to 20 metacercariae of the bisexual type of P. westermani, P. miyazakii and P. mexicanus and were necropsied 60 to 150 days after infection. All of the worms of P. westermani and a part of P.
