Origin of Ciguateric Fish: Quantitative Modelling of the Flow of Ciguatoxin through a Marine Food Chain

open access: yesToxins, 2022
To begin to understand the impact of food chain dynamics on ciguatera risk, we used published data to model the transfer of ciguatoxins across four trophic levels of a marine food chain in Platypus Bay, Australia.

An Update on Ciguatoxins and CTX-like Toxicity in Fish from Different Trophic Levels of the Selvagens Islands (NE Atlantic, Madeira, Portugal)

open access: yesToxins, 2021
The Selvagens Islands, which are a marine protected area located at the southernmost point of the Portuguese maritime zone, have been associated with fish harboring ciguatoxins (CTX) and linked to ciguatera fish poisonings. This study reports the results

Combined effects of a simulated marine heatwave and an algal toxin on a tropical marine aquaculture fish cobia ( Rachycentron canadum ) [PDF]

open access: yesAquaculture Research, 2020
Ongoing global warming is one of the major challenges for the development of aquaculture in the tropical regions where species are already cultured in the water temperature close to their upper physiological thresholds. Furthermore, warming can trigger blooms of toxic algae, yet we do not know how extreme warming such as a marine heatwave (MHW) and ...

A review on marine fish toxins and venoms

open access: yes, 2021
One of the most concerning study arenas is marine fish toxins and venoms, both of which fall under the same class of poison scarcely differentiated from each other. Toxins are produced within organisms for defence and predation, acting up when ingested by prey organisms.

Surveillance of marine fish for ciguatera toxin at fish markets in Bangkok, Thailand [PDF]

open access: yesAsian Biomedicine, 2014
Abstract Background: Ciguatera intoxication is a form of food poisoning. It is caused by the consumption of certain warm-water fish that have accumulated ciguatera toxin (CTX) through the marine food chain. Ciguatera fish poisoning (CFP) is a global disease, which although common, has been largely ignored in Thailand.

In Vivo Evaluation of the Chronic Oral Toxicity of the Marine Toxin Palytoxin

open access: yesToxins, 2020
Palytoxin (PLTX) is one of the most poisonous substances known to date and considered as an emergent toxin in Europe. Palytoxin binds to the Na+-K+ ATPase, converting the enzyme in a permeant cation channel.

Contrasting Toxin Selectivity between the Marine Pufferfish Takifugu pardalis and the Freshwater Pufferfish Pao suvattii

open access: yesToxins, 2019
To clarify the differences in toxin selectivity between marine and freshwater pufferfish, we conducted experiments in artificially reared nontoxic specimens of Takifugu pardalis (marine) and Pao suvattii (freshwater) using tetrodotoxin (TTX) and ...

A novel antibody-based biomarker for chronic algal toxin exposure and sub-acute neurotoxicity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The neurotoxic amino acid, domoic acid (DA), is naturally produced by marine phytoplankton and presents a significant threat to the health of marine mammals, seabirds and humans via transfer of the toxin through the foodweb.
