Trichinellosis - what does this mean

Trichinellosis is an infection caused by the parasite trichinella, which is transmitted through the ingestion of undercooked or raw meat from infected animals, usually pigs or wild game. the parasite can cause inflammation in the intestines and other organs, leading to abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and even fever.

What happens during the disease - trichinellosis

Люди заражаются при употреблении в пищу сырого, непрожаренного или термически недостаточно обработанного мяса зараженных животных, обычно свиней, дикого кабана или медведя. В тонкой кишке личинки покидают капсулы и проникают в подслизистый слой; через 6–8 дней они превращаются во взрослых самцов и самок. Особи женского пола приблизительно 2,2 мм длиной, а особи мужского пола приблизительно 1,2 мм длиной.

 

Зрелые особи женского пола продуцируют живых личинок в течение 4–6 недель, а затем умирают или выводятся. Личинки мигрируют через кровоток и лимфатическую систему, откуда попадают в поперечно-полосатую мускулатуру, где в конечном счёте и живут. Личинки полностью инкапсулируются в течение 1–2 месяцев и остаются жизнеспособными в течение нескольких лет как внутриклеточные паразиты. Мертвые личинки в конечном счете рассасываются или петрифицируются.

Trichinellosis - Prevention

Trichinellosis is a preventable disease caused by the ingestion of raw or undercooked pork or wild game containing the parasite trichinella. the best way to prevent trichinellosis is to cook pork and wild game to an internal temperature of at least 160°f and to avoid eating raw or undercooked meat. freezing pork or wild game at temperatures lower than -20°f for several days prior to cooking can also reduce the risk of infection.
