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

What about the toxines analysis? new strategies for sensing applications using the chemistry of diazonium group [PDF]
Objectives: Typically, the Mouse BioAssay (MBA) is a method widely used in many laboratories for analysis of marine biotoxins together with chromatographic (UPLC-MS) one [1]. The MBA will be banned from December 2014 by the amending Regulation (EC) Nº

Inhibition of cosmopolitan toxic diatom, Pseudo‐nitzschia, by seaweeds
Abstract Pseudo‐nitzschia is a genus of harmful algal bloom (HAB)‐forming diatoms that can produce domoic acid (DA), a compound known to cause death and disease in marine wildlife as well as amnesic shellfish poisoning in humans. Here, we show the effects of multiple cultivable seaweeds—Saccharina latissima (sugar kelp), Ulva spp., and Gracilaria spp ...

The marine environment is known to be occupied by microorganisms. The potential toxicity of some of these marine microorganisms, that are capable of producing unknown biotoxins, has always been underestimated.

We present a methodological framework for health risk analysis (disease risk analysis) for conservation translocation that enables the process to be scaled and adapted to the project context. We illustrate its application to two wader (shorebird) population restoration projects with differing translocation plans.

Scientific assessment of marine harmful algal blooms [PDF]
Algae are the most abundant photosynthetic organisms in marine ecosystems and are essential components of marine food webs. Harmful algal bloom or “HAB” species are a small subset of algal species that negatively impact humans or the environment.

Abstract Southern sea otters (Enhydra lutris nereis) face numerous risks to population recovery from infectious disease, shark attacks, and biotoxins. Recently, the most significant contributor to fatal infectious disease in sea otters has been acanthocephalan peritonitis (AP) caused by Profilicollis altmani.

Climate change is expected to shift the risks posed by harmful dinoflagellates in China's coastal waters. In this study, the ecological–social risk is assessed by considering both the potential presence of these algae and their overlap with coastal populations and mariculture areas.

ABSTRACT Mastitis is the most burdensome concern for the dairy cattle industry. Antimicrobials are often prophylactically administered to dairy cows at dry‐off to reduce the risk of intramammary infection during the dry period and subsequent lactation.
