Trichinella is the genus of parasitic roundworms of the phylum Nematoda that cause trichinosis. Members of this genus are often called trichinella or trichina worms. A characteristic of nematoda are one-way digestive tract, and a pseudoceolom (body cavity made up of only an ectoderm and endoderm).

Trichinella Spiralis Infection, Trichinosis (260 words)
The Trichinella Spiralis roundworm is contracted by ingesting raw or undercooked infected pork.
Trichinella Spiralis infection, Trichinosis, is more common in rural areas, especially pig and hog farming areas.
Once in the striated muscles, the Trichinella Spiralis oncosphere encyst (enclose in a cyst) and wait there until eaten, then the digestive juices dissolve the capsulated oncosphere and continues its' lifecycle.
GSC: Trichinella spiralis (542 words)
Trichinella spiralis shows a wide distribution in temperate and equatorial climatic zones, because it has been passively imported into most continents due to its high infectivity to swine and rats.
Muscle larvae live within host cells and can be identified in coiled form in a cyst within the striated muscle cell, which in turn is surrounded by a collagen sheath in a fully reprogrammed host cell.
spiralis is the cause of most of the human trichinella infections and deaths around the world, and its pathogenicity is higher than that of other trichinella species due to the higher numberof newborn larvae produced by the females and for the stronger immune reaction induced in humans.
