Abstract In France, the presence of marine microalgae of the genus Ostreopsis has been identified repeatedly on the Mediterranean coast for several years, whereas on the French Basque coasts its presence is much more recent. In the summers of 2021 and 2022, major Ostreopsis flowering episodes were reported on the Basque coast, resulting in several ...

Brevetoxin: How Is It Made and Why [PDF]
Karenia brevis is the major harmful algal bloom-forming species in the Gulf of Mexico, and produces neurotoxins, known as brevetoxins, that cause large fish kills, neurotoxic shellfish poisoning, and human respiratory distress. Brevetoxins are polyethers

Climate change has been associated with intensified harmful algal blooms (HABs). Some harmful microalgae produce toxins that accumulate in food webs, adversely affecting the environment, public health and economy.

Impact of Hurricane Ian (2022) on Karenia brevis Bloom on the West Florida Shelf
Abstract Blooms of toxigenic Karenia brevis are a major concern to public health and marine ecosystems on the West Florida Shelf. Hurricanes and tropical storms can discharge huge amounts of terrestrial nutrients into coastal oceans over a short time and have been linked to large plankton blooms, but the underlying mechanisms for the bloom generation ...

Further Insights into Brevetoxin Metabolism by de Novo Radiolabeling
The toxic dinoflagellate Karenia brevis, responsible for early harmful algal blooms in the Gulf of Mexico, produces many secondary metabolites, including potent neurotoxins called brevetoxins (PbTx).

Effects of Harmful Algal Blooms on Amphibians and Reptiles are Under‐Reported and Under‐Represented
Abstract Harmful algal blooms (HABs) are a persistent and increasing problem globally, yet we still have limited knowledge about how they affect wildlife. Although semi‐aquatic and aquatic amphibians and reptiles have experienced large declines and occupy environments where HABs are increasingly problematic, their vulnerability to HABs remains unclear.

Harmful algal blooms in the Gulf of Mexico : brevetoxin degradation and derivation formation via photochemical processes [PDF]
Harmful algal blooms (HAB’s) of the dinoflagellate Karenia brevis (Gymnodinium breve) are recurring events in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) which have significant adverse human health, environmental and economic impacts.

Aerosolized Red-Tide Toxins (Brevetoxins) and Asthma [PDF]
With the increasing incidence of asthma, there is increasing concern over environmental exposures that may trigger asthma exacerbations. Blooms of the marine microalgae, Karenia brevis, cause red tides (or harmful algal blooms) annually throughout the Gulf of Mexico.

Review: Impact of food safety on global trade
Food safety has become a pressing global issue due to growing health concerns. Contaminants can infiltrate the food supply chain, from agricultural production to processing and final consumption. Factors, such as improper agricultural inputs, microbial contamination in production and processing and fraudulent practices, are hindering international food
