First Light Demonstration of Red Solar Induced Fluorescence for Harmful Algal Bloom Monitoring
Abstract The risks harmful algal blooms (HAB) pose to aquatic ecosystems, public health, and coastal economies necessitate supplementation of current observation strategies. Herein, we explore the use of red solar induced fluorescence (SIF) from the TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI), a remote sensing measurement retrievable in variable cloud

Regular occurrence of brevetoxin-producing toxic phytoplankton in commercial shellfishery areas poses a significant risk to shellfish consumer health. Brevetoxins and their causative toxic phytoplankton are more limited in their global distribution than

Evaluation of Harmful Algal Bloom Outreach Activities
With an apparent increase of harmful algal blooms (HABs) worldwide,healthcare providers, public health personnel and coastal managers are struggling toprovide scientifically-based appropriately-targeted HAB outreach and education.

Spectroscopic ellipsometry methods for brevetoxin detection
The spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE), and attenuated internal reflection spectroscopic ellipsometry (TIRE) are promising methods in label-free biosensing applications. An ellipsometer running under surface plasmon resonance (SPR) conditions has unique advantages over other SPR-based methods in terms of sensitivity and real-time/label-free measurement ...

Synthesis, Modeling, and Biological Evaluation of Analogues of the Semisynthetic Brevetoxin Antagonist β‐Naphthoyl‐Brevetoxin [PDF]
AbstractBrevetoxins are neurotoxic compounds produced by the dinoflagellate Karenia brevis. Extensive blooms induce neurotoxic shellfish poisoning (NSP) and asthma‐like symptoms in humans. β‐naphthoyl‐brevetoxin, the first semisynthetic brevetoxin antagonist, has been defined as the lead compound in the investigation of the mechanisms of ...

Further Insights into Brevetoxin Metabolism by de Novo Radiolabeling
The toxic dinoflagellate Karenia brevis, responsible for early harmful algal blooms in the Gulf of Mexico, produces many secondary metabolites, including potent neurotoxins called brevetoxins (PbTx).

Determination of brevetoxin in recent marine sediments [PDF]
Harmful algal blooms (HAB) of Karenia brevis (K. brevis) produce a suite of lipid soluble polyether brevetoxins, known to cause environmental, health and economic ill effects. There is evidence that K. brevis has increased in abundance over the past 50 years, but the dataset is incomplete.

Structure Activity Relationship of Brevenal Hydrazide Derivatives
Brevenal is a ladder frame polyether produced by the dinoflagellate Karenia brevis. This organism is also responsible for the production of the neurotoxic compounds known as brevetoxins. Ingestion or inhalation of the brevetoxins leads to adverse effects

Lessening the Hazards of Florida Red Tides: A Common Sense Approach
In the Gulf of Mexico, especially along the southwest Florida coast, blooms of the dinoflagellate Karenia brevis are a coastal natural hazard. The organism produces a potent class of toxins, known as brevetoxins, which are released following cell lysis ...
