ABSTRACT We compiled 46 years of cetacean strandings in the Algarve, Portugal, describing temporal–spatial patterns, size–sex structure, and causes of death (COD). We analyzed national records and years with a dedicated regional stranding network (SN) to assess annual/seasonal trends, spatial hotspots, and compare biometrics and COD.

The Toxic Effects of Environmental Domoic Acid Exposure on Humans and Marine Wildlife
Biotoxins produced by harmful algal blooms (HABs) are a substantial global threat to ocean and human health. Domoic acid (DA) is one such biotoxin whose negative impacts are forecasted to increase with climate change and coastal development.

Molecular detection of a potentially toxic diatom species [PDF]
A few diatom species produce toxins that affect human and animal health. Among these, members of the Pseudo-nitzschia genus were the first diatoms unambiguously identified as producer of domoic acid, a neurotoxin affecting molluscan shell-fish, birds ...

Artificial Intelligence in Food Safety: A Tertiary Study
ABSTRACT Food safety remains a critical factor in preventing contaminated and hazardous products from reaching consumers. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and its capacity to deal with vast datasets has significantly enhanced food safety protocols, and a substantial number of primary and secondary studies have emerged at the intersection

D‐Allulose is a rare monosaccharide structurally similar to D‐fructose, characterized by low caloric content and relatively high sweetness. This study aimed to conduct a 90‐day oral toxicity test to systemically evaluate the potential toxicological effects of D‐allulose produced via a novel one‐step fermentation process using genetically engineered ...

Intraguild predation in sympatric seals and the effect on a declining population
This study examined the prevalence, spatial extent, and temporal trends of grey seal intraguild predation (IGP). We demonstrated the utility of integrating disparate datasets to address conservation challenges and highlighted how IGP, while seemingly rare, can hold sympatric species in a predator‐pit and in small populations may contribute to declines.

The Continuing Saga of the Marine Polyether Biotoxins [PDF]
AbstractThe unprecedented structure of the marine natural product brevetoxin B was elucidated by the research group of Nakanishi and Clardy in 1981. The ladderlike molecular architecture of this fused polyether molecule, its potent toxicity, and fascinating voltage‐sensitive sodium channel based mechanism of action immediately captured the imagination ...
