Anisakis Simplex
''Anisakis simplex'', known as the herring worm, is a species of nematode in the genus ''Anisakis''. Like other nematodes, it infects and settles in the organs of marine animals, such as salmon, Mackerel, mackerels and Squid, squids. It is commonly found in cold marine waters, such as the Pacific Ocean and Atlantic Ocean. This species begins as an egg found in the Feces, faeces of its host, and hatches as a second-stage larva in the ocean, where it survives for several days. This larva is then consumed by an intermediate Host (biology), host, usually a krill, and it develops into a third stage larva within the body of this intermediate host. The krill is then ingested by a Predation, predator, such as squid or fish, which act as the paratenic host for ''A. simplex''. The worm reaches the end of its life cycle when the paratenic host is ingested by a whale or another marine mammal. In the abdominal cavity of this final host, ''A. simplex'' develops into a fully mature worm and rep ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Karl Asmund Rudolphi
Karl Asmund Rudolphi (14 July 1771 – 29 November 1832) was a Swedish-born German natural history, naturalist, who is credited with being the "father of helminthology". Life Rudolphi was born in Stockholm to German parents. He was awarded his PhD in 1793 and his medical doctorate in 1794 from the University of Greifswald, where he was appointed Professor of Anatomy. He worked widely across the fields of botany, zoology, anatomy and physiology. He investigated the anatomy of nerves, carried out studies of plant growth and was an early champion of the view that the Cell (biology), cell is the basic structural unit of plants. In 1804, Karl Rudolphi, along with Johann Heinrich Friedrich Link, J.H.F. Link were awarded the prize for "solving the problem of the nature of cells" by the University of Göttingen, Königliche Societät der Wissenschaft (Royal Society of Science), Göttingen, for proving that cells had independent rather than common cell wall, walls. His first great publ ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
