Parassiti animali trasmessi da alimenti

  • Chapter
Microbiologia degli alimenti

Part of the book series: Food ((FOOD))

Estratto

I parassiti animali che possono essere contratti attraverso il consumo di alcuni alimenti appartengono a tre gruppi distinti: protozoi, platelminti e nematodi. Molti dei membri più importanti di ciascun gruppo d’interesse per gli alimenti umani sono esaminati in questo capitolo, insieme alla loro classificazione.
