چکیده
The anisakiasis is little known in Colombia and rarely diagnosed. However, reports of fish parasitized by anisakid larvae South America are increasing. Objectives: objective was determine the prevalence sensitization to Anisakis simplex a healthy population Methods: Cross-sectional survey 150 volunteers from Universidad del Valle’s community, Cali, Colombia. Past medical history, including eating habits associated with consumption assessed. Prevalence IgE antibodies determined ELISA- Trisakis 170 kit for recombinant allergens Ani s 1 7. Findings: Two sera (1.3%) blood tested were positive 7 antigen, while all negative. Conclusions: This research first exploratory study on conducted Colombia, results do not indicate major problem. Nevertheless, more epidemiological studies needed.

Sensitization to Anisakis simplex s.l. in a healthy population.
The main objective of this study was to determine the degree of sensitization to Anisakis simplex s.l. in healthy population. Using the determination of specific IgE, we studied the seroprevalence against A. simplex s.l. in blood donors selected at random in the region of Antequera (Southern Spain). We detected 22.1%. The immunoblotting technique revealed a band of approximately 60 kDa in the s...

متن کاملChanges over Time in IgE Sensitization to Allergens of the Fish Parasite Anisakis spp.
BACKGROUND Sensitization to Anisakis spp. can produce allergic reactions after eating raw or undercooked parasitized fish. Specific IgE is detected long after the onset of symptoms, but the changes in specific IgE levels over a long follow-up period are unknown; furthermore, the influence of Anisakis spp. allergen exposure through consumption of fishery products is also unknown. OBJECTIVE To ...
