Trichinella

2022
Trichinellosis is a worldwide zoonosis caused by parasitic nematodes of the genus Trichinella and remains an important zoonotic disease on a global basis. The man becomes contaminated when eating undercooked meat containing larvae of the nematode.

Trichinella

2018
This chapter provides state-of-the-art overviews on foodborne diseases caused by Trichinella in relation to their etiology, biology, epidemiology, clinical presentation, pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. Nematodes of the genus Trichinella are the causative agents of trichinellosis (formerly trichinosis), a relevant, potentially deadly

Trichinella species and genotypes

Research in Veterinary Science, 2020
Trichinella spiralis has historically been deemed "the pig parasite" owing to its initial classification within a monospecific genus. However, in recent years, the genus has expanded to include 10 distinct species and at least 3 different genotypes whose taxonomic status remains unstipulated. In contrast to T.

Trichinella Infection in Travelers

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1991
To define the incidence of trichinosis associated with foreign travel and characterize the epidemiologic and clinical features of cases acquired abroad, all case report forms submitted to the Centers for Disease Control through state health departments and the National Morbidity Reporting System from 1975 to 1989 were reviewed.

Muscle Fiber Selectivity of Trichinella spiralis and Trichinella pseudospiralis (1983)

The Journal of Parasitology, 1986
The biceps, semimembranosus, biceps femoris, and soleus muscles of female Rockland Wistar mice infected with either 1,000 Trichinella spiralis or 1,000 Trichinella pseudospiralis larvae were removed on days 12, 14, 16, and 18 post-infection (PI), sectioned and stained histochemically for their myosin ATPase activity.

Enzyme polymorphism in Trichinella

Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1982
The isoenzyme profiles of five isolates of the supposed 'species' of Trichinella, T. nativa, T. spiralis and T. nelsoni were compared. Four enzymes (AK, PGM, MPI and GPI) gave good resolution and clearly differentiated T. Spiralis from the other two species. T. nativa and T. nelsoni had similar isoenzyme patterns; the two separate isolates of T. nativa

Immunity to Trichinella Spiralis

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1977
Trichinella spiralis is an unusual nematode parasite in two respects. First, it spends its larval and adult life in the same host, and second, it is rather non-specific in its mammalian host range. Because of the above facts, and since T. spiralis is also a human pathogen, many investigations into the immunology of the infection have been conducted ...

Trichinella: Becoming a parasite

Veterinary Parasitology
Phylogenetic evidence indicates that free-living nematodes gave rise to parasitic nematodes where parasitism evolved independently at least 15 times. The high level of genetic and biological diversity among parasites dictates an equally high level of diversity in the transition to parasitism.
