Environmental determinants of the spatial distribution of Trichinella britovi and Trichinella spiralis in Hungary

Veterinary Parasitology, 2014
Trichinella spiralis and Trichinella britovi are the two most common species of the genus Trichinella persisting in the European wildlife. To investigate the spatial distribution of these Trichinella spp. and the factors influencing their circulation in Hungary, 3304 red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) and 0.29 million wild boars (Sus scrofa) were tested for ...

Identification of Spanish Trichinella isolates by ISSR-PCR: Intra-specific variability of Trichinella britovi

Veterinary Parasitology, 2009
In the present work, we investigated genetic variability of the Spanish Trichinella isolates by ISSR-PCR (inter-simple sequence repeat polymerase chain reaction), a technique that is being successfully used to study diversity among related populations.

Emerging Trichinella britovi infections in free ranging pigs of Greece

Veterinary Parasitology, 2014
Trichinella infections in humans and pigs have been documented in Greece since 1945 and a high prevalence of infection in pigs occurred in the 1950s. Up to 1984 only sporadic infections in humans were documented, and this zoonosis was not considered as a public health problem until 2009 when a human outbreak caused by the consumption of pork from an ...
