Occupational exposure to aerosolized brevetoxins during Florida red tide events: effects on a healthy worker population [PDF]
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.

An enzyme immunoassay for the detection of Florida red tide brevetoxins
A non-competitive solid-phase enzyme immunoassay for detection of brevetoxins in various matrices has been developed. The assay utilizes antibodies raised in a goat against brevetoxin PbTx-3-keyhole limpet hemocyanin conjugates with specific purification

Karenia brevis is the dominant toxic red tide algal species in the Gulf of Mexico. It produces potent neurotoxins (brevetoxins [PbTxs]), which negatively impact human and animal health, local economies, and ecosystem function.

Brevenal inhibits pacific ciguatoxin-1B-induced neurosecretion from bovine chromaffin cells.
Ciguatoxins and brevetoxins are neurotoxic cyclic polyether compounds produced by dinoflagellates, which are responsible for ciguatera and neurotoxic shellfish poisoning (NSP) respectively. Recently, brevenal, a natural compound was found to specifically

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

Accumulation of brevetoxins by passive sampling devices
We report on initial investigations into the use of polymer-based passive sampling devices for the chronic time-integrated measure of brevetoxins in natural waters. Polyethylene membranes readily accumulated brevetoxins, but reached steady state within a

Vectors of Brevetoxins to Marine Mammals
Mass mortalities of Florida manatees (Trichechus manatus latirostris) and bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) have been attributed to brevetoxins produced by the Florida red tide dinoflagellate Karenia brevis.

Development of Accelerated Solvent Extraction - Solid Phase Microextraction Method for the Analysis of Brevetoxins in Sediment Samples [PDF]
The inability of modern harmful algal bloom detection techniques to identify past K. brevis events has left the field without access to almost 300 years of historical data essential to the assessment of their apparent increase in frequency and intensity.
