Abstract
    A standardized method was developed for artificially infecting the European eel with Anguillicola crassus, a parasitical swim bladder nematode. For this purpose, an intermediate host, Paracyclops fimbriatus, and a paratenic host, Cyprinus carpio, were used. Parasite prevalence in the artificially infected eels was very high, although there was a large variation in the number of worms per eel. Compared to other methods of artificial infection described in the literature, this method appears to be more efficient ad reliable; there were also more infectious larvae that were recovered and the mortality rate of eels under treatment was lower.
