Study of Adsorption and Flocculation Properties of Natural Clays to Remove Prorocentrum lima

open access: yesToxins, 2015
High accumulations of phytoplankton species that produce toxins are referred to as harmful algal blooms (HABs). HABs represent one of the most important sources of contamination in marine environments, as well as a serious threat to public health ...

Evaluation of Passive Samplers as a Monitoring Tool for Early Warning of Dinophysis Toxins in Shellfish

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2013
From June 2006 to January 2007 passive samplers (solid phase adsorbing toxin tracking, SPATT) were tested as a monitoring tool with weekly monitoring of phytoplankton and toxin content (liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry, LC-MS) in picked cells of ...

Basic Studies of Determination of Diarrhetic Shellfish Poison by Using Tetrahymena pyriformis

open access: yesFood Hygiene and Safety Science (Shokuhin Eiseigaku Zasshi), 1985
Basic investigations for the determination of Diarrhetic Shellfish Poison (DSP) were carried out with Tetrahymena pyriformis in place of the mouse lethal assay, and the following findings were obtained.1. The growth of T. pyriformis was inhibited in proportion to the toxicity.2. The growth inhibition of T.

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.

Natural compound library screening identifies triptolide for the treatment of okadaic acid-induced intestinal dysfunction

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Okadaic acid (OA), a diarrhetic shellfish toxin, causes significant intestinal and systemic toxicity. Currently, there are no approved therapeutics specifically targeting OA-induced diarrhea.
