Abstract
In the present study, the effect of positive temperatures on the content of glycogen, the main reserve polysaccharide of trichinella, which plays an important role in their metabolism, was studied. The concentration of glycogen, determined by the modi-fied method of E.O. Danchenko and A.A. Chirkina (2010), was 0.007 μg per 1 T. nativa larva on the third day of the experiment, which corresponded to the time period for their viability to zero.Trichinosis is a helminthic disease of humans and animals that belongs to the group of dangerous helminth toxic diseases. Due to the fact that trichinella mainly exhibit anoxybiotic metabolism, their main storage substance is glycogen, which they ac-cumulate in significant quantities at the muscular stage of development [3]. Consid-ering the fact that under the influence of positive temperatures, the newly isolated Trichinella larvae exhibit mobility, the mobilization of energy resources, primarily glycogen, to ensure the basal metabolism and motor activity continues until the en-ergy sources are reduced to a critical level. In this study, we established the concen-tration of glycogen in Trichinella nativa larvae in conjunction with the viability index under the influence of elevated temperatures, affecting the intensity of metabolism.
