In experimental trichinellosis in rats the intensification of antioxidant processes has been observed. This phenomenon manifested itself in the late muscular phase (18th week post infection) of Trichinella spiralis infection through a significant increase in the activity of superoxide dismutase and peroxidase and in the content of the antioxidant α-tocopherol (vitamin E).
