Studies were carried out to determine the predilection sites of Trichinella nativa muscle larvae in arctic foxes (Alopex lagopus) caught in Greenland. The highest number of larvae per gram of tissue was found in the muscles of the eyes and the legs. With regard to predilection sites no significant differences were demonstrated either between age groups or between foxes with high and low total parasite burdens. Predilection sites were comparable with those recorded earlier in experimentally infected caged foxes and in other carnivorous species. Hypotheses on predilection sites of Trichinella muscle larvae are discussed.
开展了多项研究,以确定在格陵兰捕获的北极狐(Alopex lagopus)体内本地毛形线虫肌肉幼虫的偏好部位。每克组织中幼虫数量最多的部位是眼部和腿部肌肉。关于偏好部位,在不同年龄组之间或总寄生虫负荷高和低的狐狸之间均未显示出显著差异。偏好部位与早期在实验感染的笼养狐狸和其他食肉动物物种中记录的部位相当。讨论了关于毛形线虫肌肉幼虫偏好部位的假说。
