[Poisoning caused by marine biotoxins].
Bundesgesundheitsblatt, Gesundheitsforschung, Gesundheitsschutz, 2018This paper presents a short summary of the knowledge on marine biotoxins. As toxins are known for their acute effects, they have been classified here according to the effects they cause in acute human poisoning incidents. Toxins may thus be distinguished into those that affect the nervous system (paralytic and other neurotoxins), memory (amnesic ...

Investigation of marine biotoxins and human toxicity
2018Marine biotoxins are correlated with proliferation of harmful algal blooms (HABs) and can accumulate in seafood products, with severe consequences both on fishery industry and consumer health. Recently, an increase of HABs occurred worldwide due to climate change or anthropogenic activities such as discharge of nutrients from domestic and industrial ...

Marine Mammals as Sentinels of Environmental Biotoxins
2002Harmful algal blooms (HABs), commonly known as “red tides,” are documented in almost every coastal region of the world. Over the past decade, these toxic blooms appear to have increased in number, magnitude, and seasonal duration, potentially due to the spread of toxic algal species to new areas, eutrophication caused by human development of coastal ...

Marine Biotoxins: Laboratory Culture and Molecular Structure
1988Abstract : Dinoflagellates, Gambierdiscus toxicus, were collected at different sites on the island of O'ahu. Cultures of a number of clones have been started and are being maintained. Ciguatoxin is being extracted from the viscera and flesh of yellowtail amberjack, Seriola dumerilii, which originated in the Northwest Hawaiian Islands and was shown to ...
