Grazer‐induced bioluminescence and toxicity in marine dinoflagellates
Abstract Marine copepods are the most abundant multicellular zooplankton in the global oceans. They imprint their surrounding waters with a unique bouquet of chemical compounds, including polar lipids such as copepodamides. Prey organisms can detect copepodamides and respond by inducing defensive traits including bioluminescence, toxin production ...

Oceanography and Pacific Oyster Biochemical Composition in a Novel Oyster‐Growing Region
ABSTRACT The farming of Pacific oysters (Crassostrea [Magallana] gigas) is a rapidly growing industry in Alaska, where farms represent some of the highest latitude oyster cultivation efforts in the world. Little is known about the nearshore oceanography where Alaskan farms are located, or how the subarctic marine context influences oyster tissue ...

Sublethal doses of dinophysistoxin-1 and okadaic acid stimulate secretion of inflammatory factors on innate immune cells: Negative health consequences [PDF]
© 2016 Elsevier LtdOne of the proposed mechanisms to explain why Diarrhetic Shellfish Poison (DSP) toxins are tumor promoters is founded on the capacity of these toxins to increase TNF-α secretion.

Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Nutrition, Novel Foods and Food Allergens (NDA) was asked to deliver an opinion on the safety of an oil derived from the microalga Schizochytrium sp. (strain ATCC‐20889) as a novel food (NF) pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2015/2283.

Abstract Tetrodotoxin (TTX) and its analogues are produced by marine bacteria and have been detected in marine bivalves and gastropods from European waters. The European Commission asked EFSA for a scientific opinion on the risks to public health related to the presence of TTX and TTX analogues in marine bivalves and gastropods.

Abstract Objective The dinoflagellate Alexandrium monilatum forms blooms during summer in tributaries of the lower Chesapeake Bay. Questions persist about the potential for A. monilatum to negatively affect aquatic organisms. Its main toxin, goniodomin A (GDA), a polyketide macrolide, has been shown to have adverse effects on animals, for example ...

Abstract Dinophysis is an obligate mixotroph that relies on consumption of the ciliate, Mesodinium rubrum, to grow and form harmful algal blooms (HABs). In this study, blooms of Dinophysis acuminata in two NY, USA, estuaries were studied over the course of 3 yr (2019–2021) using discrete samples and an Imaging FlowCytobot (IFCB) to capture images of ...
