Determination of neurotoxic shellfish poisoning toxins in shellfish by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry coupled with dispersive solid phase extraction [PDF]
An innovative method based on dispersive solid phase extraction (d-SPE) in conjunction with LC-MS/MS had been developed for the simultaneous quantitative determination of three brevetoxins (BTXs), which can result in neurotoxic shellfish poisoning (NSP),

Marine Algal Toxins and Public Health: Insights from Shellfish and Fish, the Main Biological Vectors [PDF]
Exposure to toxigenic harmful algal blooms (HABs) can result in widely recognized acute poisoning in humans. The five most commonly recognized HAB-related illnesses are diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP), paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP), amnesic ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Algicidal Bacteria in Controlling Harmful Algal Blooms: Advances in Bacteria‐Algae Interactions [PDF]
This review elucidates the molecular mechanisms of algicidal bacteria, highlighting critical behaviours like chemotaxis, quorum sensing and extracellular vesicle release. It details how these actions disrupt algal cellular integrity, photosynthesis and calcium homeostasis, providing a theoretical foundation for controlling harmful algal blooms ...

Human shellfish poisoning: Implementation of a national surveillance program in France
Toxic algae and their toxins represent an emerging public health issue, particularly due to global warming. The toxicological mechanisms of neurotoxic phycotoxins and their human health effects have been widely described (paralytic, neurological, amnesic,

Toxic Effects and Tumor Promotion Activity of Marine Phytoplankton Toxins: A Review
Phytoplankton are photosynthetic microorganisms in aquatic environments that produce many bioactive substances. However, some of them are toxic to aquatic organisms via filter-feeding and are even poisonous to humans through the food chain.

Guidance Level for Brevetoxins in French Shellfish
Brevetoxins (BTXs) are marine biotoxins responsible for neurotoxic shellfish poisoning (NSP) after ingestion of contaminated shellfish. NSP is characterized by neurological, gastrointestinal and/or cardiovascular symptoms. The main known producer of BTXs

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