MultiBarcodeTools: Easy selection of optimal primers for eDNA multi‐metabarcoding

Environmental DNA, Volume 5, Issue 6, Page 1793-1808, November 2023., 2023
Metabarcoding of environmental DNA (eDNA) is a revolutionary technique for monitoring of ecosystems, but no single primer can amplify and discriminate all species in any environment. We developed MultiBarcodeTools, which automatically recommend the optimal combination of fish eDNA multi‐metabarcoding primers.

A Perspective on Removal of Cyanotoxins from Water Through Advanced Oxidation Processes

Global Challenges, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2023., 2023
Sulfate radical‐based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) excel in cyanotoxin removal. Their high reactivity efficiently degrades diverse cyanotoxins, ensuring safe water quality. Their versatility and effectiveness make them the most suitable AOPs and safeguard aquatic ecosystems and human health.

Emergent marine toxins risk assessment using molecular and chemical approaches

EFSA Journal, Volume 20, Issue S1, May 2022., 2022
Abstract Cyanobacteria harmful blooms represent a deviation to the normal equilibrium in planktonic communities involving a rapid and uncontrolled growth. Owing to the capacity to produce toxins as secondary metabolites, cyanobacteria may cause huge economic losses in the fishing and aquaculture industries and poisoning incidents to humans due to their

Tetrodotoxin in live bivalve mollusks from Europe: Is it to be considered an emerging concern for food safety?

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 719-737, January 2022., 2022
Abstract Tetrodotoxins (TTXs) are a group of potent neurotoxins named after the Tetraodontidae fish family (pufferfish). TTXs have been reported in several animal taxa, both terrestrial and marine. The ingestion of TTX‐contaminated flesh can cause serious neurotoxic symptomatology and can eventually lead to death.

Traditional remedies used in the Western Pacific for the treatment of ciguatera poisoning [PDF]

, 1992
Ciguatera is a specific type of food poisoning associated with the ingestion of tropical fish, which, although normally safe for consumption, may at times contain high amounts of ciguatoxin, as well as other chemically related toxins.
