Anisakis spp. infection in Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus, Linnaeus 1758) from the Sea of Marmara
Öz
This study was aimed to
determine the parasite infection of fish samples. Ten Atlantic mackerel (Scomber
scombrus), which were suspected with parasite infection, were sent from the
fisherman at the Sea of Marmara, Turkey. The skin, fins, eyes, buccal cavity,
and gills were examined regarding ectoparasites, while internal organs were
investigated concerning endoparasites. Seven of 10 fish were infected with
endoparasites. A total of 27 nematode larvae were detected from the abdominal
cavity of fish. The detected nematode larvae were rinsed in 0.9 % isotonic
saline and preserved in glycerine-alcohol until used. After that anterior and
posterior end of samples were cleared in lactophenol. The larvae had a
prominent boring tooth at the anterior end. The body features of the larvae
were measured (body width, oesophagus length, ventriculus length and mucron
length) on a light microscope (10x-40x). Morphological analysis showed that all
samples were identified as Anisakis Type I larvae (L3). It is known that
anisakiasis is one of the important fish-borne zoonotic diseases. Also, this nematode species
had been previously reported in Turkish water from different fish species. The present case contributes valuable information about one of the intermediate
hosts of Anisakis spp. in Turkey.
