Are toxins from harmful algae a factor involved in the decline of harbour seal populations in Scotland?

open access: yes, 2015
Firstly this study builds on the investigation initiated by Hall and Frame (2010), which found that Scottish harbour seals were exposed to domoic acid (DA), a potent natural neurotoxin produced by phytoplankton.

Dinophysis and Diarrhetic Shellfish Poisoning Toxin at Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf, Santa Cruz, California [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Diarrhetic Shellfish Poisoning Toxins (DSTs) are produced by the marine dinoflagellate, Dinophysis. DSTs can bioaccumulate in shellfish and cause gastrointestinal illness when humans consume high levels of this toxin. Although not regulated in the U.S.,

Analysis of Diarrhetic Shellfish Poisoning Toxins in Shellfish Tissue by Liquid Chromatography with Fluorometric and Mass Spectrometric Detection

open access: yesJournal of AOAC INTERNATIONAL, 1995
Abstract Diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) is a severe gastrointestinal illness caused by consumption of shellfish contaminated with toxigenic dinoflagellates. The main toxins responsible for DSP are okadaic acid (OA), DTX-1, DTX-2, and DTX-3, the latter being a complex mixture of 7-O-acyl derivatives of the first 3.
