Biohazards of Protein Biotoxins

open access: yesDefence Science Journal, 2007
Biotoxins are toxic substances produced by a living organism that cause diseases in humanbeings, animals, or plants. The agent may be lethal or incapacitating. The new, emerging threatagents are biotoxins produced by animals, plants, fungi, and bacteria. Many types of organismsproduce substances that are toxic to humans.

Origin and characterization of cyclodepsipeptides: Comprehensive structural approaches with focus on mass spectrometry analysis of alkali‐cationized molecular species

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, Volume 44, Issue 6, Page 1013-1098, November/December 2025.
Abstract Cyclodepsipeptides (CDPs) represent a huge family of chemically and structurally diverse molecules with a wide ability for molecular interactions. CDPs are cyclic peptide‐related natural products made up of both proteinogenic and nonproteinogenic amino acids linked by amide and ester bonds.

Reduced Adult Survival Estimated in Areas of Decline of Harbour Seal Populations in Scotland

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
We applied mark–recapture models to photo‐ID data from harbour seals at three sites of contrasting population trajectories in Scotland and estimated apparent adult survival and fecundity rates. The results indicate that the causes of the decline are likely acting on adult survival, while evidence that a decrease in fecundity is driving the observed ...

A full-length protocol to test hemolytic activity of palytoxin on human erythrocytes [PDF]

open access: yesInvertebrate Survival Journal, 2007
The hemolytic assay protocols currently utilized to test the presence of the marine biotoxin palytoxin (PTX) are deeply analyzed. In some points, slight modifications and rearrangements have been realized, to obtain an exhaustive protocol suitable to ...

Diversity of Amphidomataceae (Dinophyceae) in the Black Sea, including description of Amphidoma pontica sp. nov.

open access: yesPhycological Research, Volume 73, Issue 4, Page 225-248, October 2025.
SUMMARY The dinoflagellate family Amphidomataceae includes the genera Azadinium and Amphidoma, several species of which are known producers of lipophilic toxins known as azaspiracids (AZAs). However, the diversity, abundance, and distribution of this important group of nanoplanktonic dinoflagellates in the Black Sea remain poorly understood. To address

Searching for Hyperspectral Optical Proxies to Aid Chesapeake Bay Resource Managers in the Detection of Poor Water Quality [PDF]

open access: yes
Shellfish aquaculture is a growing industry in the Chesapeake Bay. As population grows near the coast, extreme weather events cause a greater volume of pollutant runoff from impervious surfaces and agricultural lands.
