Marine Algal Toxins and Public Health: Insights from Shellfish and Fish, the Main Biological Vectors [PDF]

Marine Drugs
Exposure to toxigenic harmful algal blooms (HABs) can result in widely recognized acute poisoning in humans. The five most commonly recognized HAB-related illnesses are diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP), paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP), amnesic ...

SoundToxins: A Research and Monitoring Partnership for Harmful Phytoplankton in Washington State [PDF]

Toxins, 2023
The more frequent occurrence of marine harmful algal blooms (HABs) and recent problems with newly-described toxins in Puget Sound have increased the risk for illness and have negatively impacted sustainable access to shellfish in Washington State. Marine

Growth Dynamics and Toxin Production of Pseudo-nitzschia Species Isolated from the Central Adriatic Sea [PDF]

Toxins
The marine diatoms Pseudo-nitzschia spp. are globally distributed primary producers, with certain species capable of producing neurotoxin domoic acid (DA), causing amnesic shellfish poisoning (ASP).

Toxic Effects and Tumor Promotion Activity of Marine Phytoplankton Toxins: A Review

Toxins, 2022
Phytoplankton are photosynthetic microorganisms in aquatic environments that produce many bioactive substances. However, some of them are toxic to aquatic organisms via filter-feeding and are even poisonous to humans through the food chain.

Transcriptional Response in the Digestive Gland of the King Scallop (Pecten maximus) After the Injection of Domoic Acid

Toxins, 2021
Some diatom species of the genus Pseudo-nitzschia produce the toxin domoic acid. The depuration rate of domoic acid in Pecten maximus is very low; for this reason, king scallops generally contain high levels of domoic acid in their tissues.

Toxicity of the Diatom Genus Pseudo-nitzschia (Bacillariophyceae): Insights from Toxicity Tests and Genetic Screening in the Northern Adriatic Sea

Toxins, 2022
Diatoms of the genus Pseudo-nitzschia H.Peragallo are known to produce domoic acid (DA), a toxin involved in amnesic shellfish poisoning (ASP). Strains of the same species are often classified as both toxic and nontoxic, and it is largely unknown whether
