Addressing the safety of new food sources and production systems

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 23, Issue 3, May 2024.
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

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 2, Issue 2, April 2024.
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 (

Revisiting the Neuroblastoma Cell-Based Assay (CBA-N2a) for the Improved Detection of Marine Toxins Active on Voltage Gated Sodium Channels (VGSCs)

Toxins, 2020
The neuroblastoma cell-based assay (CBA-N2a) is widely used for the detection of marine biotoxins in seafood products, yet a consensus protocol is still lacking.

An expert‐based system to predict population survival rate from health data

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 1, February 2024.
Abstract Timely detection and understanding of causes for population decline are essential for effective wildlife management and conservation. Assessing trends in population size has been the standard approach, but we propose that monitoring population health could prove more effective.

Preparation of a Specific ssDNA Aptamer for Brevetoxin-2 Using SELEX

Journal of Analytical Methods in Chemistry, 2016
The existing assays for detecting brevetoxin (BTX) depend on expensive equipment with a professional operator or on an antibody with limited stability, which requires complex processes, a high cost, and a considerable amount of time.

A Screening Tool for the Direct Analysis of Marine and Freshwater Phycotoxins in Organic SPATT Extracts from the Chesapeake Bay

Toxins, 2020
Many detection methods for phycotoxins, bioactive compounds produced by harmful algae, focus on one compound or a class of related compounds. Multiple harmful algal species often co-occur in the environment, however, emphasizing the need to analyze for ...

Design of a Duplex-to-Complex Structure-Switching Approach for the Homogeneous Determination of Marine Biotoxins in Water

Toxins
In this report, we describe a fluorescent assay for the detection of six marine toxins in water. The mechanism of detection is based on a duplex-to-complex structure-switching approach.

Brevetoxin PbTx2 Modulates Oxidative Stress and Inflammatory Response in an In Vitro Human Immune Cell Line

Toxics
Brevetoxins (PbTx) exert detrimental effects on marine organisms and humans, mainly through alterations in immune cell function. This study evaluated the immunotoxic potential of sublethal concentrations of PbTx-2 using the THP-1 human monocyte cell line
