Rats and pigs were vaccinated against Trichinella spiralis spiralis either by feeding infective larvae of the subspecies, Trichinella spiralis nativa in musculature or by gavage. The number of larvae established in the musculature of vaccinated nonchallenged and vaccinated challenged rats and pigs were negligible and statistically comparable, while highly significant infections were established in the nonvaccinated challenged rats and pigs. High vaccination doses of T. spiralis nativa gave virtually complete protection to challenge with T. spiralis spiralis in pigs. The results of one trial in rats with a lower vaccination dose of larvae suggest that there is a minimal vaccination dose of larvae required to elicit marked resistance to challenge. The low numbers of muscle larvae established due to the high vaccination doses of larvae confirm the low infectivity of the subspecies, T. spiralis nativa in rats and pigs.  相似文献

Enzyme immunoassays using the triple antibody enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with both Trichinella spiralis spiralis and T. spiralis nativa excretory-secretory (ES) antigens and a commercial Trichinella spiralis enzyme immunoassay test kit were carried out on sera from pigs that were infected with light, moderate and high doses of infective T. spiralis spiralis and T. spiralis nativa respectively. Seroconversion occurred in all pigs given infective Trichinella larvae although no trichinae were recovered from pigs given T. spiralis nativa larvae and examined between days 92 and 99 postinfection by pepsin digestion. Anti-Trichinella antibodies were detected in pigs infected with T. spiralis spiralis and T. spiralis nativa by ELISA using either the homologous or heterologous ES antigen. The commercial Trichinella spiralis enzyme immunoassay test kit also detected anti-Trichinella antibodies in both the T. spiralis spiralis and T. spiralis nativa infected pigs. The commercial test kit did not appear to be as sensitive as the triple antibody ELISA since it usually took two to three days longer for seroconversion to be detected by the former procedure. Finally seroconversion occurred more rapidly in swine infected with T. spiralis spiralis than with pigs receiving comparable doses of T. spiralis nativa.  相似文献

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay examination of sera from pigs vaccinated with T. spiralis nativa infective larvae and/or challenged with T. spiralis spiralis larvae using a T. spiralis spiralis excretory-secretory antigen showed a significant cross-reaction between the two species of Trichinella. Eight of 12 pigs vaccinated with a high dose of T. spiralis nativa reacted positively 28 days postvaccination while the remaining four pigs had high but negative ELISA optical density readings. Five of six pigs challenged with the homologous species reacted positively 28 days postchallenge but the sixth pig remained negative despite having a muscle infection of 5.6 larvae/g of musculature.  相似文献

The influence of preconditioning temperature, length of the preconditioning period, host and age of the infection on the survival of Trichinella spiralis nativa larvae in musculature to low temperature refrigeration was investigated. Dogs, foxes, ferrets, mink and guinea pigs were infected with a T. spiralis nativa isolate, killed at various times postinfection, preconditioned at temperature of -10 degrees C, -15 degrees C or -20 degrees C for varying periods of time prior to low temperature refrigeration and subsequent pepsin digestion to determine survival of larvae. The preconditioning temperature played an important role in the subsequent survival of larvae in musculature at low refrigeration temperatures. Under the conditions of this study, survival of larvae was greater as the preconditioning temperature became lower. The minimum period of preconditioning required had an inverse relationship with the refrigeration temperature. Preconditioning of the T. spiralis nativa isolate used occurred in the musculature of guinea pigs, foxes, ferrets, mink and dogs with larvae surviving longer in vulpine and canine musculature than in the other hosts studied. Age of the infection was not a major factor in the survival of preconditioned larvae in musculature at low refrigeration temperatures although survival was slightly longer in older infections.  相似文献

Inoculation of swine with a sylvatic isolate of Trichinella spiralis, designated T s nativa, resulted in low numbers of muscle larvae, compared with muscle larvae accumulation in swine inoculated with a pig type of T s spiralis. Despite low infectivity of T s nativa for swine, primary inoculation resulted in high levels of immunity against challenge infection with T s spiralis. This immunity was expressed in accelerated expulsion of challenge adults from the intestine and reduced numbers of muscle larvae. Pigs inoculated with T s nativa developed cellular and humoral responses similar to those in pigs inoculated with T s spiralis. However, in immunoblots, sera from pigs inoculated with T s nativa recognized additional proteins in muscle larvae excretory-secretory (ES) products, compared with sera from pigs inoculated with T s spiralis. Active immunization of pigs with ES products from T s nativa resulted in numerically higher, but not significantly different levels of immunity, compared with pigs immunized with ES from T s spiralis. The highest levels of immunity were obtained in pigs immunized with a T s spiralis newborn larval extract. The combination of ES products and newborn larval extract did not result in additive levels of immunity. These results indicate that the major immune effector response to Trichinella sp in pigs is against the newborn larvae, regardless of the genetic type of Trichinella sp.  相似文献

The infectivity of Trichinella spiralis nativa isolates from widely separated geographic areas of Canada was determined by feeding infected musculature to swine, laboratory rats and carnivores (cats, foxes, ferrets). Low infectivity for swine and rats and high infectivity for carnivores were observed. Light infections were established in four of 16 swine examined between 25 and 53 days postinfection. Feeding of infected porcine musculature to ferrets demonstrated that Trichinella spiralis nativa can be passaged through swine even though the infectivity rate is low.  相似文献

An ELISA using a Trichinella spiralis spiralis excretory-secretory antigen was evaluated as a procedure for the diagnosis of trichinosis in swine in Canada. Field and experimental trials were carried out using both indirect serological (ELISA) and direct parasitological (pepsin-digestion) methods concurrently on serum and musculature, respectively, from each animal. The ELISA is a sensitive and specific test for the detection of Trichinella antibodies in porcine sera when present. The development of Trichinella antibodies appears to be dependent on the magnitude of the infection established, age of the infection when the animal is tested and the immunocompetence or response to infection of individual animals. False negative reactions were recorded in both field and experimental trials. In the field study, five of the 1009 swine examined were parasitologically positive with light infections ranging from 0.01 to 0.046 larvae per gram (la/g) of musculature yet all were serologically negative. Experimentally it was shown that Trichinella antibodies develop slowly, at least two to three months postinfection, in pigs with very light infections. Even in pigs which developed infections of 33 to 55 la/g of musculature, seroconversion occurred greater than 23 and less than 30 days postinfection. The immunocompetence or response to infection of individual pigs was variable as illustrated by one pig inoculated with 3000 infective larvae which had consistently lower titers compared to others in the same group despite the establishment of a muscle infection of 8.5 la/g of musculature. One false positive reaction was recorded in the experimental trial in an animal which had received 100 larvae and seroconverted at about three months postinfection.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

A refrigeration technique to differentiate the subspecies, Trichinella spiralis spiralis and T. spiralis nativa is described. Trichinella spiralis spiralis trichinae in musculature do not survive 48 hours post-refrigeration at -32 degrees C while T. spiralis nativa will survive 72 hours and longer at the same temperature.  相似文献

During susceptibility studies of non-specific hosts, three merino sheep were infected with 3000, 5000 or 7000 Trichinella spiralis larvae by gavage. Clinical, physiological and serological parameters were assessed during the experiment. On the 152nd day p.i., animals were necropsied and, using artificial digestion methods, numbers of Trichinella larvae in muscle tissues were determined. The most infected parts were masseters with 3122 larvae g-1 muscle, 5526 larvae g-1 muscle and 4058 larvae g-1 muscle and diaphragms with 2778 larvae g-1 muscle, 2725 larvae g-1 muscle and 2320 larvae g-1 muscle, for the 3000, 5000 and 7000 infection levels, respectively. A positive correlation between infective rate and circulating antibodies was observed using ELISA and latex agglutination (LA) test methods. Trichinella larvae from sheep applied by gavage to ICR mice developed to the muscle stage. No significant changes were found in the clinical and physiological parameters of infected animals. Our results confirm the high susceptibility of merino sheep to T. spiralis infection.  相似文献

Trichinella spiralis spiralis infections were established in cattle by gavage and by feeding infected musculature in the ration. Trichinae were present in greatest numbers in masseter, tongue and diaphragm. Trichinella spiralis nativa had a low infectivity to cattle although a light infection was established in one cow by a heavy challenge. Cattle had an aversion to eating musculature unless it was camouflaged with molasses. Clinical signs of reluctance to eat and masticate were observed between 10 and 30 days postinfection. Eosinophil counts started to increase at seven days and peaked at about 30 days postinfection. By day 60 eosinophil counts returned to near preinfection levels but in animals examined greater than 90 days postinfection, the counts were variable. Focal lesions of eosinophilic myositis were observed up to about 90 days postinfection. Little cellular reaction was observed surrounding trichinae after muscle invasion and cyst development was completed except for cysts undergoing disintegration. Seroconversion occurred in all cattle examined between 7 and 14 days postinfection. Seroconversion was associated with IgG1 and IgG2 immunoglobulins. Peak levels of antibody occurred between 30 and 60 days. Cattle examined at 182 and 369 days postinfection showed a gradual decrease in antibody levels over time.  相似文献

The horse is considered an aberrant host for the nematode parasite Trichinella spiralis, and many aspects of the biology and epidemiology of Trichinella infection in the horse are poorly understood. It has been reported that experimentally-infected horses produce a transient serological response to infection and that muscle larvae are cleared more rapidly than in parasite-adapted hosts such as the pig and humans. However, limited numbers of animals have been studied, and both the longevity of larvae in horse musculature and the immune response to Trichinella larvae remain unclear. In this study, we infected 35 horses with 1000, 5000, or 10,000 T. spiralis muscle larvae and followed the course of infection for 1 year, assessing larval burdens in selected muscles, the condition and infectivity of recovered larvae, and the serological response of infected horses. The results demonstrated that T. spiralis establishes infection in horses in a dose dependent manner. Anti-Trichinella IgG antibodies peaked between weeks 6-10 post-inoculation. Viable, infective larvae persisted in horse musculature for the duration of the study (12 months), and exhibited no apparent reduction in muscle burdens over this period. Encapsulated larvae showed no obvious signs of degeneration in histological sections. Larval capsules were surrounded by infiltrates consisting of mature plasma cells and eosinophils. Macrophages were notably absent. Given the lack of a detectable serological response by 26 weeks p.i. and the persistence of infective muscle larvae for at least 1 year, parasite recovery methods are currently the only suitable detection assays for both meat inspection and epidemiological studies of Trichinella infection in the horse.  相似文献

Three experimental groups of six male raccoon dogs (Nyctereutes procyonoides) each were formed by placing one of three littermates from six litters into each group. One group was inoculated with pig-origin Trichinella spiralis, the second was inoculated with raccoon dog-origin T. nativa, and the third served as a control group. The infective dose was 1,000 larvae/kg of body weight. Every third week, biopsies from M. triceps brachii were taken, and serum samples were collected for up to 12 weeks postinfection. In the early phase of the infection, cysts of both parasites were elongated cylinders that later became more spherical. However, at the end of the experiment, the cysts of T. nativa were more rounded than those of T. spiralis (mean length/width = 2.5 versus 1.5 in T. spiralis versus T. nativa, respectively). Both species accumulated a collagen-rich capsule around the nurse cell, but the capsule was thicker in T. nativa. In both parasites, the total surface area of the sagittal section of the cyst was equal. Inflammation was more intense around T. nativa cysts. Specific antibodies were recognizable 2 weeks after infection by both enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and western blot. In western blots, serum from both T. nativa- and T. spiralis-infected animals recognized the same components, but reaction with the homologous antigen was stronger. The same pattern was also seen in the ELISA. Immunoreactive epitopes were localized only in internal organs and cuticula of larvae in muscle.  相似文献

为了研究PCR检测感染小鼠血液中旋毛虫DNA的敏感性,应用旋毛虫1.6 kb重复序列为扩增靶序列对旋毛虫(T1)、乡土旋毛虫(T2)、布氏旋毛虫(T3)、伪旋毛虫(T4)和南方旋毛虫(T7)肌幼虫DNA进行PCR扩增,并检测小鼠感染20、100、300条T1肌幼虫后不同时间的外周血.结果表明,T1、T4和T7肌幼虫可扩增出特异性目的条带(510 bp),而T2和T3无扩增产物;1、0.04和0.02条T1、T4和T7肌幼虫均能扩增到清晰的目的条带(510 bp).20条幼虫感染小鼠后5 d~6 d,PCR阳性率均为7.69%;100条幼虫感染小鼠后5 d~12 d可检出旋毛虫DNA,其中感染后5 d~7 d的阳性率分别为30.77%、38.46%及30.77%;300条幼虫感染小鼠后5 d~15 d可检出旋毛虫DNA,感染后7 d的阳性率为61.54%,感染后6 d与8 d~10 d的阳性率均为53.85%. 3组旋毛虫感染小鼠PCR阳性率间的差异有统计学意义(p<0.01),PCR阳性率随感染剂量的增加而升高(p<0.01),100条与300条感染小鼠感染后不同时间的PCR阳性率与检测时间有相关性(p<0.01).以上实验结果表明PCR检测感染小鼠血液中旋毛虫DNA的敏感性与感染程度和检测时间有关,对感染早期旋毛虫抗体阴性宿主有一定诊断价值.  相似文献

Twelve Merino sheep were experimentally shown to be susceptible to infection with Trichinella spiralis or T. pseudospiralis by feeding on infected carcasses of mice or by oral intubation with recovered muscle larvae. The larvae recovered from the sheep showed variable tissue distribution. The diaphragm and tongue were most affected. The viability of the recovered larvae was confirmed by successful passage in mice. The reproductive capacity of T. spiralis in sheep was higher than that of T. pseudospiralis, and also higher than its reproductive capacity in C57BL/6J mice. The reproductive capacity of T. pseudospiralis in sheep at a lower dose was higher than that observed in mice. However at higher doses, it was significantly lower than that in mice. Therefore, it may be concluded that the sheep may be considered a suitable host for both species of Trichinella.  相似文献

Experimental Trichinella infections in ponies.   总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0       下载免费PDF全文
Light Trichinella infections were established in three ponies given 1000, 5000 and 25000 T. spiralis spiralis infective larvae respectively by stomach tube. A predilection site of infection in all ponies was the tongue. Anti-Trichinella antibodies were detected in all ponies by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using a T. spiralis spiralis excretory-secretory antigen. The ponies given 5000 and 25000 infective larvae reacted positively on days 26 and 24 postinfection, respectively, using a criterion of greater than or equal to 5 X mean optical density readings of preinfection sera as positive. The pony given 1000 larvae did not react positively although antibodies were present as indicated by 3 X to 4 X mean optical density readings of preinfection sera. The results of this limited study indicate that the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay cannot be used to certify horsemeat free of Trichinella since the presence of detectable antibody levels appears to be related to the magnitude of the infection and duration of the infection when the animal is tested.  相似文献
