Marine toxins [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Medical Bulletin, 2000
Seafood products are important both nutritionally and economically. Within Europe, some 12 billion Pounds of fishery products are consumed annually and an enormous variety of species are available. Although seafood is rarely implicated in food poisoning, compared to other food sources, it does provide some specific human health hazards unique to this ...

No evidence for a culturable bacterial tetrodotoxin producer in Pleurobranchaea maculata (Gastropoda: Pleurobranchidae) and Stylochoplana sp. (Platyhelminthes: Polycladida) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a potent neurotoxin found in the tissues of many taxonomically diverse organisms. Its origin has been the topic of much debate, with suggestions including endogenous production, acquisition through diet, and symbiotic bacterial ...

Biosynthesis of marine toxins [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Chemical Biology, 2020
Throughout history, humans have encountered natural toxic chemicals from the ocean environment, often through contaminated seafood. Although marine toxins can be harmful to human health and devastate local environments when they are produced during algal bloom events, they are also important biochemical research reagents and drug leads in medicine.

Recent Advances in Aptasensing Strategies for Monitoring Phycotoxins: Promising for Food Safety

open access: yesBiosensors, 2022
Phycotoxins or marine toxins cause massive harm to humans, livestock, and pets. Current strategies based on ordinary methods are long time-wise and require expert operators, and are not reliable for on-site and real-time use.
