Sažetak
Anisakis simplex (Anisakidae, nematoda), is the parasite which lives in the guts of marine fish and mammals. Humans can be infested after consumption of raw, slightly marinated or salted and insufficiently cooked fish, cephalopods and crustaceans. A. simplex is the parasite of numerous commercially significant marine fishes, and among them is blue fin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) as an important export product, so the data of its distribution are of great concern for both human health and economic reasons. Prevalence and abundance of the parasite 3rd stage larvae (invading form) was investigated on the sample of 179 blue fin tuna collected from the middle Adriatic marine farms during a period of three years. The parasite was found in 39 samples, with total prevalence of 21.78% and abundance of 2.69, respectively.
