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.

Improved Synthesis of the ABCDE Fragment of Brevetoxin A
A second-generation synthesis of the BCDE fragment of brevetoxin A is described. Novel reactions were developed that extend the utility of the asymmetric glycolate alkylation reaction and improve scale-up to provide gram quantities of the B and E ...

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

Navigating aquaculture losses: Tackling fish‐killing phytoflagellates in a changing global landscape
Abstract Aquaculture has emerged as a pivotal alternative for seafood production, addressing the challenges posed by depleting wild fish stocks. However, the industry faces substantial challenges, notably the presence of harmful algal blooms (HABs), which can cause serious economic consequences.

Addressing the safety of new food sources and production systems
Abstract New food sources and production systems (NFPS) are garnering much attention, driven by international trade, changing consumer preferences, potential sustainability benefits, and innovations in climate‐resilient food production systems. However, NFPS can introduce new challenges for food safety agencies and food manufacturers.

Scientific opinion on marine biotoxins in shellfish in the Republic of Croatia
Summary Marine biotoxins are thermostable, mostly non‐protein molecules with different chemical components. According to solubility, they are divided into water‐soluble (hydrophilic) and fat‐soluble (lipophilic). The regulations of the EU and the Republic of Croatia regarding the maximum limits (ML) in live shellfish cover several groups: azaspiracids (
