Immobilisation of Neuro-2a cells on electrodes and electrochemical detection of MTT formazan crystals to assess their viability [PDF]
Marine toxins are potent toxic compounds that may reach humans and poison them. Therefore, their detection in seafood is crucial to prevent intoxication cases.

Highly Sensitive and Practical Fluorescent Sandwich ELISA for Ciguatoxins
Ciguatera fish poisoning (CFP) caused by the consumption of fish that have accumulated ciguatoxins (CTXs) affects more than 50000 people annually. The spread of CFP causes enormous damage to public health, fishery resources, and the economies of tropical

Cell immunolocalization of ciguatoxin-like compounds in the benthic dinoflagellate Gambierdiscus australes M. Chinain & M.A. Faust by confocal microscopy [PDF]
Dinoflagellates of the genera Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa are able to produce potent neurotoxins like ciguatoxins (CTXs), which, after biooxidation in fish, are responsible for ciguatera intoxication. An isolate of G.

Toxicity and toxin profile of La Réunion (Indian Ocean) fish containing CTX-like compounds [PDF]
Several outbreaks of ciguatera poisoning have been recorded in La Réunion (SW Indian Ocean) since 1986. Toxicities and toxin profiles of fish from the Indian Ocean are poorly documented.

Rapid detection of ciguatoxins in Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa with immunosensing tools [PDF]
Consumption of seafood contaminated with ciguatoxins (CTXs) leads to a foodborne disease known as ciguatera. Primary producers of CTXs are epibenthic dinoflagellates of the genera Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa.

Report of the Expert Meeting on Ciguatera Poisoning. Rome, 19–23 November 2018
Ciguatera poisoning (CP) is reported in historical documents of the sixteenth century. The first report of the organism Gambierdiscus (originally referred to as Goniodoma sp.) dates from October 1948, in Cabo Verde.

Development of bioanalytical devices for the detection of ciguatoxins and the ciguatoxin producing genera Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa [PDF]
La ciguatera (CFP) és una intoxicació alimentària que provoca símptomes gastrointestinals, cardíacs i neurològics que poden durar setmanes, mesos o fins i tot anys.
