Identification of the Trichinella species by PCR method
Serbia is country with a high prevalence of Trichinella infection in pigs, which continues to be a serious human health problem. In Serbia, only a few isolates of Trichinella found in pork have been genetically specified to date, and all were proven as T. spiralis. New data shows that in th...

description |
Serbia is country with a high prevalence of Trichinella infection in pigs,
which continues to be a serious human health problem. In Serbia, only a few
isolates of Trichinella found in pork have been genetically specified to
date, and all were proven as T. spiralis. New data shows that in the sylvatic
cycle in Serbia, at least in the Belgrade district, more than one Trichinella
species co-exist (T. spiralis and T. britovi). Increased awareness of the
possible overlap among sylvatic and domestic Trichinella cycles indicates the
need for continuous monitoring of Trichinella species circulation and
strongly points to the need that all isolates of Trichinella found in meat
for human consumption should be subject to a determination of the Trichinella
species (due to the risk of transmission of infection with T. britovi to
domestic pigs and humans). This is why we examined using PCR the Trichinella
larvae found in pig meat that caused a human outbreak (Trichinella infection)
in Grocka (Belgrade district) during February 2011. The isolated larvae
belonged to T. spiralis. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke Republike Srbije, br.
