Trichinella britovi outbreak in Piedmont, North-West Italy, 2019-2020: Clinical and epidemiological insights in the one health perspective.
Travel Med Infect Dis
May 2022
Amedeo di Savoia Hospital, ASL Città di Torino, Turin, Italy.
Background: Trichinellosis, a foodborne zoonosis due to nematodes of the genus Trichinella, occurs in the form of outbreaks following meat consumption. North Italy has been rarely involved. We report here the most significant wildlife derived trichinellosis outbreak ever registered in the Piedmont region.

Department of Parasitology and Tropical Medicine, National Centre of Infectious and Parasitic Diseases, Sofia, Bulgaria.
Background: In Bulgaria, more than 20 autochthonous human parasitic infections have been described and some of them are widespread. Over 50 imported protozoan and helminthic infections represent diagnostic and therapeutic challenges and pose epidemiological risks due to the possibility of local transmission.
Aims: To establish the distribution of autochthonous and imported parasitic diseases among the population of the country over a 2-year period (2013-2014) and to evaluate their significance in the public health system.
Identification of Spanish Trichinella isolates by ISSR-PCR: intra-specific variability of Trichinella britovi.

Servicio de Parasitología, Centro Nacional de Microbiología, Instituto de Salud Carlos III, Majadahonda, Madrid, Spain.
In the present work, we investigated genetic variability of the Spanish Trichinella isolates by ISSR-PCR (inter-simple sequence repeat polymerase chain reaction), a technique that is being successfully used to study diversity among related populations. We recovered a total of 43 isolates from different host and geographic localization and identified them by molecular techniques (RAPD and multiplex-PCR) and by Western blot with monoclonal antibodies US5 and US9. Nineteen (44.

The red fox (Vulpes vulpes) is considered one of the main reservoir of Trichinella spp. in Europe. As limited information on Trichinella infection in wildlife of Hungary is available, 2116 red foxes, representing more than 3% of the estimated fox population of the country, were screened to detect Trichinella larvae by a digestion method.

The study of Trichinella isolates from wildlife in Germany revealed the presence of Trichinella spiralis and Trichinella britovi in wild boars and foxes. T spiralis was detected in meat products imported from Spain, which is one of the two endemic areas of domestic trichinellosis in the European Union: It was also detected in meat from a grizzly bear marketed in Alaska, and Trichinella nativa was detected in a polar bear from the Berlin Zoo. These results stress the importance of examining for Trichinella live animals and meat products imported to Germany from both EU and non-EU countries.
