Pathogenic Potential of Two Sibling Species, Anisakis simplex (s.s.) and Anisakis pegreffii (Nematoda: Anisakidae): In Vitro and In Vivo Studies
Table 1
Cumulative penetration rate of Anisakis simplex (s.s.) and A. pegreffii from 2 different agar blocks overlaid with 3 different supernatants. Data are expressed as the average penetration rate ± standard error of five replicates. Means in each column with the same superscript lower-case letters (a–c for A. simplex (s.s.) and d–f for A. pegreffii) are not significantly different (). Means in each row with the same subscript upper-case letters (A–C for A. simplex (s.s.) and D–F for A. pegreffii) are not significantly different ().
