A total of 93 specimens of Astroconger myriaster were purchased from the Chungmu fishery market at the south sea area during the period from October 1 to November 25, 1996. Specimens were examined for the infection status with larvae anisakid. Anisakid larvae were collected from viscera, muscle, omenturn and liver. Eight hundred four larval anisakids sorted from 93 specimens of A. myriaster ranged from 9.0 to 26.5mm in their body length. They were classified based on morphological and morphometric observations as follows Anisakis type 1 larvae (465 larvae, 57.8%: positive rate), Contracaecum type D(129, 16.0%), Contracaecum type A(90, 11.2%), Anisakis type 11(60, 7.5%), Phapidascaris(3, 0.4%) and unknown type(57, 7.1%).

Four genera of metazoan parasites were recovered from 3 of 6 Sebastes pinniger examined during January 2003. Two hundred forty-five metazoan parasites were recovered. Trochopus trituba Sekerak and Arai, 1977 and Anisakis larvae were found to he infected S. finniger Gill and te be abundant in this rockfish. One hundred eleven worms of monogenean trematodes and 134 larval anisakine nematodes were also found in this fishes. Precise positions with regard to gills, fins, and gastrointestinal tracts were recorded on S. pinniger to determine distribution of metazoan parasites of Trochopus trituba, Anisakis simplex larva, Contracaecum sp. larva, and Pseudo terranova decipiens larva. The monogenean trematodes, T. trituba were attacked to the gill arches and fin, and the larval anisakine nematodes, A. simplex, Contracaecum sp.,and P. decipiens were found on the visceral organs such as intestine, omentum and stomach wall. The second gill arches were the most heavily infested and posterodorsal region of the gill arches contained most monegenenn trematodes. The nam site of infestation of larval anisakine nematodes were the intestine.

Acute gastric anisakiasis with multiple anisakid larvae infection is reported. A 68-year-old woman residing in Busan, Korea, had epigastric pain with severe vomiting about 5 hours after eating raw anchovies. Four nematode larvae penetrating the gastric mucosae in the great curvature of the middle body and fundus were found and removed during gasteroendoscopic examination. Another one thread-like moving larva was found in the great curvature of upper body on the following day. On the basis of their morphology, the worms were identified as the 3rd stage larvae of Anisakis simplex. This case is acute gastric anisakiasis provoking severe clinical problems by the multiple infection and the greatest number of anisakid larvae found in a patient in Korea.

A total of ten specimens of darkblotched rockfish, Sebastes crameri obtain-ed from Newport fish market were examined for parasites during February, 2002. Eight out of ten S. crameri were found to be infected with metazoan parasites. They were flatworm Trochopus australis, nematoda Anisakis simplex, and copepods Neobrachiella robusta and Chondracanthus triventricosus. Nine (30.0%) T. australis, seven (30.0%) N. robusta, one (10.0％) C. triventricosus and seven (60.0%) A. simplex were infected. Among them, A. simplex was the most abundant and prevalent metazoan parasites in S. crameri. T. australis and N. robsta were found in gills with moderate intensity (1.7 and 1.9, respectively), and C. triventricosus in dorsal fin with low intensity (0.3).

Yellow tails (Seriola quinqueradiata) were purchased from the Jakalchi fish market located in Busna and examined for anisakid larvae. The collected larvae were classified by their morphologicaltypes. Of the 16 yellow tails exmained, seven (43.8%) were infected with the larvae. Among 90 larvae, 81 were collected from the omentum and 9 from the muscle. Anisakids were classified into five larval types, anisakis type I (56 larvae in number, 62.2%), Contracaecum type A (8, 8.9%) and type D (7, 7.8%) and Contracaecum type C (19, 21.1%). The present study revealed that Anisakis type I was the most common among the five larval types in the yellow tails caught in the South sea of Korea peninsula.

During the studies on the esophagogastric ulcers in swine, Anisakis type larvae were found associated with stomach lesions. 1. Of the 1,531 pigs examined, 11(0.7%) were infested with the parasite in the stomach. 2. The parasite was identified as Anisakis type I larvae, according to the morphological characteristics. 3. On gross examination, the parasites were seen penetrating gastric mucosa, resulting in hemorrhagic ulcers. 4. Main histopathological features were edema, massive eosinophilic infiltrations around the parasite, necrosis and perivascular eosinophilic accumulations in the submucosa.

In the survey on the pig-stomach worms of the abattoir pigs in Gyeongbug province, some unusual nematodes were found by gross and microscopic inspection to the pig-stomach. The results obtained in the survey and identification were summarized as follows. 1. A natural infection of Anisakis type larvae in the pig gastric wall was newly confirmed in korea and in all cases, the larvae were identified as Anisakis type 1 (Berland, 1961). 2. A chronic granulomatous lesion with small lymphocytes, neutrophils and eosinophils was appeared in the gastric wall penetrated by the larvae. 3. Of total 318 pigs, 9 pigs were infected with the larvae and in each stomach, only one or two worms were detected from the abattoir pigs. 4. Ascarops strongylina was found as one percent.

Anisakid nematodes third stage larvae were isolated from the muscles of masou salmon (Oncorhynchus masou). Fish were purchased from Jumunjin fishery market in Gangneung. Four Anisakid third stage larvae were isolated from 4 fish. Molecular identification of the isolated worms was conducted by PCR-RFLP analysis of ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer region and direct sequencing of mitochondrial DNA cox2 gene. As results, all the tested individual worms were identified as Anisakis simplex (sensu stricto). This is the first report of molecular detection of anisakid worms in salmonid fishes in Korea.

1993년 4월에서 6월 사이에 강원도 속초시, 경남 양산군 기장읍 대변 및 충무시 어시장에서 구입한 멸치의 anisakid 유충 감염상을 알아보고자 하였다. 각 지역에서 구입한 멸치들을 실험실로 운반한 후 체장을 계측하고 각 개체별로 기관을 분리하여 입체현미경하에서 유충을 분리 수집하였다. 수집한 유충들은 lactophenol로 투명화 한 다음 계측 및 동정하였으며 각 지역별, 멸치 개체별, 멸치 기관별 유충감염량을 산정하였다. 충체의 형태적인 분류 결과 Anisakis type I과 II, Contracaecum B와 C형의 4종이 기생하고 있음을 확인하였다. 멸치 2,180마리 중 양성이 150 마리로서 6.9%의 감염율을 나타내었으며 멸치의 크기에 따른 감염율의 차이는 없었다. 멸치의 각 장기별 nisihid 유충의 감염율은 근육에서 56.1%로 가장 높았고. 망 38.0%, 장 4.1%, 위 1.7% 및 고환 0.6%의 순으로 나타났다. 해안 지역별 anisakid 유충의 감염율은 대변 5.1%. 속초 8.0% 및 충무 9.2%의 양성율이었다. 이 성적에 의하면 멸치 생식을 함으로서 anisakid 유충 인체 감염이 가능할 것으로 예상된다.

Larval excretory-secretory products of Anisakis simplex are known to cause allergic reactions in humans. A cDNA library of A. simplex 3rd-stage larvae (L3) was immunoscreened with polyclonal rabbit serum raised against A. simplex L3 excretory-secretory products to identify an antigen that elicits the immune response. One cDNA clone, designated as ${\alpha}$-methylacyl CoA racemase (Amacr) contained a 1,412 bp cDNA transcript with a single open reading frame that encoded 418 amino acids. A. simplex Amacr showed a high degree of homology compared to Amacr orthologs from other species. Amacr mRNA was highly and constitutively expressed regardless of temperature (10-$40^{\circ}C$) and time (24-48 hr). Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that Amacr was expressed mainly in the ventriculus of A. simplex larvae. The Amacr protein produced in large quantities from the ventriculus is probably responsible for many functions in the development and growth of A. simplex larvae.
