Aerosolized Red-Tide Toxins (Brevetoxins) and Asthma [PDF]

Chest, 2007
With the increasing incidence of asthma, there is increasing concern over environmental exposures that may trigger asthma exacerbations. Blooms of the marine microalgae, Karenia brevis, cause red tides (or harmful algal blooms) annually throughout the Gulf of Mexico.

Brevetoxins: Toxicological Profile

, 2015
Brevetoxins (PbTxs) are polyether ladder-shaped neurotoxins produced by the dinoflagellate Karenia brevis. Blooms of K. brevis have been recorded since the mid-1800s, principally in the Gulf of Mexico but occasionally along the mid and south Atlantic coasts.

Recreational exposure to aerosolized brevetoxins during Florida red tide events

Harmful Algae, 2003
During two separate Karenia brevis red tide events, we measured the levels of brevetoxins in air and water samples, conducted personal interviews, and performed pulmonary function tests on people before and after they visited one of two Florida beaches ...

Occupational Exposure to Aerosolized Brevetoxins during Florida Red Tide Events: Effects on a Healthy Worker Population [PDF]

Environmental Health Perspectives, 2005
Karenia brevis (formerly Gymnodinium breve) is a marine dinoflagellate responsible for red tides that form in the Gulf of Mexico. K. brevis produces brevetoxins, the potent toxins that cause neurotoxic shellfish poisoning.

Antibodies to brevetoxin B: Serologic differentiation of brevetoxin B and brevetoxin A

Toxicon, 1992
A brevetoxin B immunogen was prepared by reacting brevetoxin B with the amino groups of bovine albumin followed by treatment with sodium borohydride. Immunized rabbits produced antibodies that bound [3H]brevetoxin B-alcohol. This binding increased with repeated immunization (KD for one rabbit after three courses of immunization was about 10 pM ...

Preservation of brevetoxins in Southwest Florida coastal sediments

Harmful Algae, 2022
Florida red tide is a natural phenomenon caused by the dinoflagellate, Karenia brevis. Karenia brevis blooms produce potent toxins (brevetoxins) that can cause neurotoxic and respiratory illness in humans and marine life. Red tides were recorded by Spanish explorers as early as the 17th century, however published red tide studies before 1940 are ...

Brevetoxins

2000
Abstract Brevetoxins are lipid-soluble marine poisons synthesized by the red tide dinoflagellate Ptychodiscus brevis (previously Gymnodinium breve). These cyclic polyethers and structural relatives of ciguatoxin may induce massive killings of fish and also cause neurotoxic shell fish poisoning (NSP). NSP is a nonlethal intoxication of
