Gambierdiscus spp. is mainly responsible for the ciguatera fish poisoning (CFP) around the world. The gambiertoxin produced by Gambierdiscus can be passed through the food chain to form ciguatoxins (CTXs) that cause ciguatoxins poisoning.

The process of eutrophication is natural. For many lakes, as they age over centuries, there is a buildup of nutrients, sediment, and plant material, which slowly fill the lake basin. Eventually, the process ends and the basin becomes colonized by terrestrial vegetation.

Biochemical and Genetic Engineering of Diatoms for Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Biosynthesis
The role of diatoms as a source of bioactive compounds has been recently explored. Diatom cells store a high amount of fatty acids, especially certain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs).

In Vitro Interactions between Okadaic Acid and Rat Gut Microbiome
Okadaic acid (OA) is a marine biotoxin associated with diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP), posing some threat to human beings. The oral toxicity of OA is complex, and the mechanism of toxicity is not clear. The interaction between OA and gut microbiota

Nitrogen and phosphorus limitation of phytoplankton growth in New Zealand lakes: Implications for eutrophication control [PDF]
We examine macronutrient limitation in New Zealand (NZ) lakes where, contrary to the phosphorus (P) only control paradigm, nitrogen (N) control is widely adopted to alleviate eutrophication.

Climate change and eutrophication risk thresholds in English rivers [PDF]
Climate change is expected to alter water quality in rivers, but where and when this may happen is uncertain. This report describes a study of projected response in the amount of algal plant growth (phytoplankton biomass). Increasing algal growth is one
