Metabarcoding reveals marked seasonality and a distinctive winter assemblage of dinoflagellates at a coastal LTER site in the Gulf of Naples

open access: yesMarine Ecology, Volume 44, Issue 3, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Dinoflagellates constitute an abundant and diversified component of marine plankton, mostly associated with stratified conditions typical of late spring through autumn in temperate regions. Yet, difficulties with the identification of many species limit the knowledge of their composition and seasonal succession.

The efficacy and safety of high‐pressure processing of food

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 20, Issue 3, March 2022., 2022
Abstract High‐pressure processing (HPP) is a non‐thermal treatment in which, for microbial inactivation, foods are subjected to isostatic pressures (P) of 400–600 MPa with common holding times (t) from 1.5 to 6 min. The main factors that influence the efficacy (log10 reduction of vegetative microorganisms) of HPP when applied to foodstuffs are ...

Biological Effects of the Azaspiracid-Producing Dinoflagellate Azadinium dexteroporum in Mytilus galloprovincialis from the Mediterranean Sea

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2019
Azaspiracids (AZAs) are marine biotoxins including a variety of analogues. Recently, novel AZAs produced by the Mediterranean dinoflagellate Azadinium dexteroporum were discovered (AZA-54, AZA-55, 3-epi-AZA-7, AZA-56, AZA-57 and AZA-58) and their ...

Sensitivity improvement of an immuno-detection method for azaspiracids based on the use of microspheres coupled to a flow-fluorimetry system

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2014
1. INTRODUCTION Azaspiracids (AZAs) are lypophilic marine toxins known to produce AZA poisoning (AZP). AZP is the most recent human syndrome related to the ingestion of toxin-contaminated shellfish meat which symptoms are similar to those produced by ...

Azaspiracids - structure and biotransformations

open access: yes
Azaspiracidi su morski toksini, koji se akumuliraju u školjkašima i drugim organizmima koji se hrane filtriranjem morske vode. Konzumacijom kontaminiranih morskih plodova dolazi do azaspiracidnog trovanja školjkašima, pri čemu se javljaju neugodni ...

Human Poisoning from Marine Toxins: Unknowns for Optimal Consumer Protection

open access: yesToxins, 2018
Marine biotoxins are produced by aquatic microorganisms and accumulate in shellfish or finfish following the food web. These toxins usually reach human consumers by ingestion of contaminated seafood, although other exposure routes like inhalation or ...
