Field monitoring of copepodamides using a new application for solid phase adsorption toxin tracking

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 22, Issue 12, Page 877-888, December 2024.
Abstract Chemical signaling is ubiquitous in the marine environment. Plankton rely on chemical signals to find mates, hunt prey, and respond to threats, and these small‐scale interactions can propagate into community‐wide cascades and large‐scale ecological changes. The chemical signaling exchange in the open ocean is poorly understood, and fundamental

Isolation and characterisation of Caribbean ciguatoxins from the horse-eye jack (Caranx latus)

, 1997
The toxins involved in ciguatera (fish poisoning) in the Caribbean Sea were isolated from Caranx latus, a pelagic fish often implicated in ciguatera in the Caribbean region, and purified by mouse bioassay directed fractionation.
