Abstract

Anisakiasis is a zoonotic disease of humans, caused by the third larval stage of nematodes from the Anisakidae family. The most important species causing zoonosis and health problems in humans are Anisakis simplex, A. pegreffii and Pseudoterranova decipiens. These parasitic species are present and widespread in the seas of the whole world. In the life cycle of nematodes from the family Anisakidae, human is an accidental host. In the last ten years in Bosnia and Herzegovina, analysis for the presence of L3 infective larvae were mostly carried out at the Aquaculture Department of the Veterinary Institute, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Sarajevo. The analyzed samples are not numerous in relation to the B&H market, but the trend of positive samples is continuous. Out of a total of 707 examined samples, 153 samples were positive for the presence of Anisakis spp. The presence of Anisakis simplex in farmed and open-sea marine fish was registered for the first time in the Bay of Neum in B&H. From the public health aspect, such fish represent a zoonotic risk of anisakiasis and are considered unhealthy and harmful to human health, and should never be found on the market or available to consumers. Key words: zoonosis, anisakiasis, fish
