Phytoplankton selection by mussels, and diarrhetic shellfish poisoning

open access: yesMarine Biology, 1998
To better understand the dynamics of diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) contamination a field study was carried out on the feeding behavior of Mytilus galloprovincialis (Lmk) during an important DSP outbreak. The study was focused on the relationships between phytoplankton in seawater and algal cells, or their remnants, in mussel stomachs. During the

‘Diarrhetic’ Type Shellfish Poisoning in Nigeria

open access: yesBulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2009
The safety of shellfish found and consumed in Nigeria is doubtful because no investigations have been carried out on their toxicity. The occurrence and toxicity of toxins in the commonly consumed Nigerian shellfish from Lagos, Warri, Oron, and Port Harcourt (PH) were investigated. Albino Wistar mice treated with chloroform extract of hepatopancreas (HP)

Contamination of shellfish from Shanghai seafood markets with paralytic shellfish poisoning and diarrhetic shellfish poisoning toxins determined by mouse bioassay and HPLC

Food Additives and Contaminants, 2005
This paper reports the results of investigations of shellfish toxin contamination of products obtained from Shanghai seafood markets. From May to October 2003, 66 samples were collected from several major seafood markets. Paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) and diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) toxins in shellfish samples were monitored primarily by

Anatomical distribution of diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) toxins in the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis

Toxicon, 2007
The aim of this work was to shed light on the anatomical distribution of diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) toxins in the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis and to determine any possible changes undergone during the depuration process. To this end, the distribution of two DSP toxins--okadaic acid and DTX2--and some of their derivatives were studied by ...

Bayesian Networks modeling of diarrhetic shellfish poisoning in Mytilus edulis harvested in Bantry Bay, Ireland

open access: yesHarmful Algae, 2022
Diarrhetic Shellfish Poisoning (DSP) results from the human consumption of contaminated shellfish with marine biotoxins, which are produced by some species of marine dinoflagellates, mainly belonging to the genus Dinophysis.

Dinophysis Species Associated with Diarrhetic Shellfish Poisoning Episodes in North Patagonian Gulfs (Chubut, Argentina) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Shellfish Research, 2015
The marine dinoflagellate genus Dinophysis Ehrenberg is globally distributed in coastal and oceanic waters and can produce lipophilic toxins. These toxins can accumulate in filter-feeding shellfish and cause diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP).

New Targets in Diarrhetic Shellfish Poisoning Control

Journal of Natural Products, 2005
The toxic profile of dinoflagellates varies even among identical species, raising an interesting question about the mechanism of toxin regulation and production. In consequence, it also poses a considerable problem in their control methods. In this paper, we report on the isolation and structural elucidation of several new ester derivatives of okadaic ...

Diarrhetic Shellfish Poisoning in Narragansett Bay

Estuaries, 1987
A two-year survey for diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) was conducted in Narragansett Bay using the mouse assay method. The suspected causative organisms,Dinophysis spp., were monitored at the same time. Only one shellfish sample, in September 1984, yielded an unequivocal positive result at a time when the dinoflagellate population was dominated byD.

Diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) toxins in South Australian shellfish

Harmful Algae, 2006
Abstract In December 2003 a bloom of the toxic dinoflagellate Dinophysis acuminata (Claparede and Lachmann, 1859) was detected during routine plankton monitoring at Smoky Bay, on the west coast of South Australia (SA). Samples of scallops, razorfish and oysters were collected and analysed by LC–MS/MS to compare diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP ...

Quantitative proteomic analysis of okadaic acid treated mouse small intestines reveals differentially expressed proteins involved in diarrhetic shellfish poisoning

open access: yesJournal of Proteomics, 2012
Okadaic acid (OA) is a principal diarrhetic shellfish poisoning toxin produced by marine dinoflagellates. This study compared protein profiles of mice small intestines at four time points (0, 3, 6 and 24 h) after a single oral administration of 750 mu g ...
