Determination of Brevetoxins in Shellfish by the Neuroblastoma Assay [PDF]
Abstract A neuroblastoma assay for determination of brevetoxins in shellfish was developed together with a method for sample cleanup that allows separation of brevetoxins from most of the components that cause matrix interference in the assay.

Total Synthesis of Brevetoxin A
A total synthesis of brevetoxin A is reported. Two tetracyclic coupling partners, prepared from previously reported advanced fragments, were effectively united via a Horner−Wittig olefination.

Inhalation toxicity of brevetoxin 3 in rats exposed for 5 days
Brevetoxins are potent neurotoxins produced by the marine dinoflagellate Karenia brevis. Exposure to brevetoxins may occur during a K. brevis red tide when the compounds become aerosolized by wind and surf.

Chronic and punctuated changes in subtropical reef fish assemblages
Abstract Understanding temporal changes in marine biodiversity is crucial for managing and conserving reef ecosystems in the face of global environmental shifts. Although biodiversity changes at global and regional scales often differ, the role of subtropical systems in these patterns has been relatively understudied until recently.

Semisynthesis of S-Desoxybrevetoxin-B2 and Brevetoxin-B2, and Assessment of Their Acute Toxicities
Brevetoxins are neurotoxins associated with blooms of marine algae such as Karenia brevis and can accumulate in the marine food chain, causing intoxication of marine animals and people consuming seafood.

Ladder-Shaped Ion Channel Ligands: Current State of Knowledge
Ciguatoxins (CTX) and brevetoxins (BTX) are polycyclic ethereal compounds biosynthesized by the worldwide distributed planktonic and epibenthic dinoflagellates of Gambierdiscus and Karenia genera, correspondingly.

Interaction of a dinoflagellate neurotoxin with voltage-activated ion channels in a marine diatom [PDF]
Background The potent neurotoxins produced by the harmful algal bloom species Karenia brevis are activators of sodium voltage-gated channels (VGC) in animals, resulting in altered channel kinetics and membrane hyperexcitability.
