Molecular Diagnosis of Cause of Anisakiasis in Humans, South Korea (http://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/21/2/14-0798)

摘要

Anisakiasis in humans in South Korea has been considered to be caused exclusively by the larvae of Anisakis simplex sensu stricto and Pseudoterranova decipiens. Recently, however, DNA sequencing of larvae from 15 of 16 anisakiasis patients confirmed the cause to be Anisakis pegreffii infection . Molecular analysis should be performed for all extracted larvae.
