Abstract The presence of zoonotic Hysterothylacium larvae in fish from Spanish Atlantic and Mediterranean waters, which can cause economic losses for commercial fisheries, has been reported several studies; however, little is known about species identity this region. aim study was to identify at level the morphotypes detected three commonly consumed fish: horse mackerel ( Trachurus trachurus ), blue whiting Micromesistius poutassou ) anchovy Engraulis encrasicolus ). Third‐ fourth‐stage...
The sibling species Anisakis simplex (s.s.) and pegreffii are parasites of marine mammals fish worldwide the main causative agents human anisakiasis. In sympatric areas, a hybrid genotype between two has been identified, mainly in third-stage larvae, but rarely fourth-stage adult forms. aim this study was to confirm presence genotypes larvae parasitizing caught allopatric Spanish waters, North-East Atlantic West Mediterranean, respectively, possible differences growth behaviour genotypes. Of...
Anisakiosis is a fish-borne disease with gastrointestinal and/or allergic symptoms caused by the consumption of raw or undercooked fish parasitized nematode larvae genus Anisakis. In Europe, Anisakis pegreffii has been detected as causative agent, although sibling species simplex sensu stricto (s.s.) also known to cause in other parts world, and discrepancies exist regarding their respective pathogenic potential. Spain high number cases recorded, marinated anchovies being main source...
Abstract BACKGROUND Seafood parasitation by Anisakis (Anisakidae) larvae has been reported in most of the oceans and seas worldwide. The presence these nematodes commonly consumed fish represents a potential hazard for consumers as they can provoke gastrointestinal symptoms allergic reactions. In present work, capacity SYBR Green qPCR protocol to quantify commercial was evaluated using experimentally spiked samples with different numbers (0–50) A. simplex third‐stage (L3). To verify...
