Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 29, Issue 72, December 22, 2023., 2023 The fully functionalized A−F ring system of the Pacific ciguatoxin CTX3C suitable for coupling to the I−M fragment of the natural product, has been synthesized from a simple glucal derivative. A six‐step sequence that features ring‐closing metathesis and stereoselective palladium‐mediated allylation has been deployed in an iterative manner to construct

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.

Ciguatera fish poisoning in Brazilian traveler to Caribbean
Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2019 Ciguatera poisoning is the most common form of non-bacterial food-poisoning from fish worldwide. The incidence among Brazilians returning from high-risk regions is unclear because it is not a mandatory reportable disease. We describe a previously healthy

A Strategic Framework for Community Engagement in Oceans and Human Health
Community Science, Volume 1, Issue 1, June 2022., 2022 Abstract Over the past two decades, scientific research on the connections between the health and resilience of marine ecosystems and human health, well‐being, and community prosperity has expanded and evolved into a distinct “metadiscipline” known as Oceans and Human Health (OHH), recognized by the scientific community as well as policy makers.

Epidemiology and Clinical Features of Ciguatera Fish Poisoning in Hong Kong
Toxins, 2014 In the present review, the main objective was to describe the epidemiology and clinical features of ciguatera fish poisoning in Hong Kong. From 1989 to 2008, the annual incidence of ciguatera varied between 3.3 and 64.9 (median 10.2) per million people.

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

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.
