AB  - Trichinella  species  are  nematodes  infecting  the  striated  muscle  of  warm-blooded  animals.  Human  infection  with  Trichinella  (called  trichinosis,  trichinellosis,  or  trichiniasis)  occurs  by  consumption  of  raw  or  insufficiently  cooked  infected  meat.  Trichinella  spiralis  is  the  first  of  at  least  9  Trichinella  species  identified  as  responsible  for  disease  and  is  the  species  most  associated  with  domestic  and  wild  swine.  Most  human  infections  are  associated  with  undercooked  pork,  although  horsemeat  and  wild  carnivorous  game,  such  as  bear  and  walrus  meat,  may  also  be  sources  of  infection.
