Anisakiasis is a fish-borne zoonosis caused by third stage larvae of the nematode Anisakis sp. present in fish or cephalopods. This is the first contribution to the molecular identification and epidemiology of Anisakis spp. in commercial fish from the Gulf of Asinara (Sardinia, western Mediterranean Sea). Between April 2006 to November 2011, 777 specimens of 10 fish species (Engraulis encrasicolus, Merluccius merluccius, Micromesistius poutassou, Phycis blennoides, Sardina pilchardus, Sardinella aurita, Scomber colias, Sphyraena viridensis, Trachurus mediterraneus, Trachurus trachurus) were examined for Anisakis sp. larvae. A total of 1286 larvae were found in 218 fish. The great majority of larvae were located in the body cavity, and only a small part (60, 4.7%) in the muscle. All the Type I larvae (1272) were identified as Anisakis pegreffii and all the Type II (14) as Anisakis physeteris, confirming that A. pegreffii is the dominant species and the most important agent of human anisakiasis in the western Mediterranean Sea.
旋毛虫病是一种由鱼类或头足类动物中存在的第三期线虫旋毛虫幼虫引起的鱼源性人畜共患病。这是首次对来自阿斯纳拉湾（撒丁岛，西地中海）商业鱼类中的旋毛虫属进行分子鉴定和流行病学研究。2006 年 4 月至 2011 年 11 月期间，对 10 种鱼类（海鲈、无须鳕、短尾无须鳕、拟无须鳕、沙丁鱼、金头鲷、竹荚鱼、鲭鱼、马鲛、金枪鱼）的 777 个标本进行了旋毛虫幼虫检查。在 218 条鱼中发现了 1286 条幼虫。大多数幼虫位于体腔中，只有一小部分（60，4.7%）位于肌肉中。所有的 I 型幼虫（1272 条）被鉴定为棘颚口线虫，所有的 II 型幼虫（14 条）被鉴定为 Physeteris 属，证实棘颚口线虫是西地中海最主要的人类旋毛虫病的优势种和最重要的病原体。
