Semisynthesis of S-Desoxybrevetoxin-B2 and Brevetoxin-B2, and Assessment of Their Acute Toxicities
animals and people consuming seafood. Brevetoxin-B2 (5) is a toxic metabolite produced in shellfish exposed to algae that contain brevetoxin-B (1). S-Desoxybrevetoxin-B2 (4) has been proposed as a cometabolite produced during this transformation, and ...

Brevetoxin — an elusive toxin in New Zealand waters
Liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LCMS) was used to test 34 microalgal isolates, all known or reported to be brevetoxin producers. Only Karenia brevis strains, imported from the USA, produced brevetoxin.

Brevenal and β-naphtoyl-brevetoxin abolishes ciguatoxin-evoked release of catecholamines.
Chromaffin cells were pre-treated (15 min) with increasing concentrations of either brevenal (A) or β-naphtoyl-brevetoxin (B) and subsequently exposed to indicated concentrations of P-CTX-1B, nicotine or vehicle alone as indicated in the figure, before ...

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 ...

Allosteric interactions among pyrethroid, brevetoxin, and scorpion toxin receptors on insect sodium channels raise an alternative approach for insect control [PDF]
Intensive pyrethroid use in insect control has led to resistance buildup among various pests. One alternative to battle this problem envisions the combined use of synergistically acting insecticidal compounds.
