Total Synthesis of Brevetoxin-B
Brevetoxin-B (BTX-B), produced by the red tide organism, Gymnodium breve Davis, is the first member of marine polycyclic ethers to be structurally elucidated and one of the most potent neurotoxins. The structural feature is a trans-fused polycyclic ether

Brevetoxin: How Is It Made and Why
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

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.

Brevetoxin Body Burdens in Seabirds of Southwest Florida [PDF]
Harmful algal blooms (HABs, or red tides ) of the brevetoxin-producing dinoflagellate Karenia brevis occur periodically along Florida\u27s Gulf coast. Mass mortalities of marine birds have long been associated with these blooms, yet there are few data ...
