Marine Biotoxins: Occurrence, Toxicity, Regulatory Limits and Reference Methods [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Harmful algal blooms are natural phenomena caused by the massive growth of phytoplankton that may contain highly toxic chemicals, the so-called marine biotoxins causing illness and even death to both aquatic organisms and humans.

Multiplex biotoxin surface plasmon resonance method for marine biotoxins in algal and seawater samples

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2012
A multiplex surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor method for the detection of paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) toxins, okadaic acid (and analogues) and domoic acid was developed. This method was compared to enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) methods.

Precautions for seafood consumers: An updated review of toxicity, bioaccumulation, and rapid detection methods of marine biotoxins

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Seafood products are globally consumed, and there is an increasing demand for the quality and safety of these products among consumers. Some seafoods are easily contaminated by marine biotoxins in natural environments or cultured farming processes.

Evaluation of the study carried out by ANSES on the effectiveness of sanitary shucking of queen scallops (<i>Aequipecten opercularis</i>) contaminated by okadaic acid toxins. [PDF]

EFSA J
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA evaluated the effectiveness of sanitary shucking of queen scallops (Aequipecten opercularis) contaminated with okadaic acid (OA) group toxins. Specifically, EFSA was tasked to evaluate a study conducted by the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (ANSES ...

Safety of oil from <i>Schizochytrium</i> sp. A2 for use in infant and follow-on formula as a novel food pursuant to regulation (EU) 2015/2283. [PDF]

EFSA J
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Nutrition, Novel Foods and Food Allergens (NDA) was asked to deliver an opinion on the safety of an oil derived from the microalga‐like organism Schizochytrium sp. A2 as a novel food (NF) pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2015/2283.

The Determination of Marine Biotoxins in Seafood

, 2017
Marine biotoxins are natural toxins produced by specific algae species. These toxins can accumulate in seafood such as mussels, oysters and fish. Consumption of contaminated seafood may lead to severe intoxication such as memory loss, paralysis, diarrhoea and even death.

Utility of Red Tide (Karenia brevis) Monitoring Data as a Predictive Tool to Estimate Brevetoxin Accumulation in Live, Free-Ranging Marine Mammals

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Exposure of common bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) to brevetoxins (PbTx) produced by blooms of the toxic phytoplankton Karenia brevis frequently results in severe health impacts, including illness and large-scale mortality events.

Revisiting the Neuroblastoma Cell-Based Assay (CBA-N2a) for the Improved Detection of Marine Toxins Active on Voltage Gated Sodium Channels (VGSCs)

Toxins, 2020
The neuroblastoma cell-based assay (CBA-N2a) is widely used for the detection of marine biotoxins in seafood products, yet a consensus protocol is still lacking.
