Anti-Trichinella Antibody Level in Muscle Juice of Experimentally Infected Mice / 中国寄生虫学与寄生虫病杂志

ABSTRACT

0.05). The absorbance value of Trichinella-infected muscle conserved at -20 ℃ for 10 wk decreased to 0.43, with significant difference from that conserved at -20 ℃ for 1 wk, but the positive rate was also 100%, and antibodies were detected in all muscle samples conserved at -20 ℃ for 20 weeks when the experiment was ended. Conclusion When animals died or were slaughtered and serum samples could not be collected, muscle juice can be collected from fresh, cool and frozen meat and used as a substitute sample for detecting anti-Trichinella antibodies.
