Molecular Mechanisms of Algicidal Bacteria in Controlling Harmful Algal Blooms: Advances in Bacteria‐Algae Interactions

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
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 ...

Neurotoxins from Marine Dinoflagellates: A Brief Review

Marine Drugs, 2008
Dinoflagellates are not only important marine primary producers and grazers, but also the major causative agents of harmful algal blooms. It has been reported that many dinoflagellate species can produce various natural toxins.

Fast and Sensitive Method for Determination of Domoic Acid in Mussel Tissue

The Scientific World Journal, 2016
Domoic acid (DA), a neurotoxic amino acid produced by diatoms, is the main cause of amnesic shellfish poisoning (ASP). In this work, we propose a very simple and fast analytical method to determine DA in mussel tissue.

Risk assessment of the production of seaweed in the Netherlands; food safety and nature

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Seaweed is seen as an important source of alternative proteins for a sustainable food system and food security. The cultivation of seaweed is therefore encouraged by the European Union (EU) and also by the Dutch government.In the Netherlands, seaweed is farmed on small scale in the Southwest Delta, the Wadden Sea and the North Sea. Despite the

Dietary Exposure to Mercury and Arsenic From Traditional Qatari Foods: Implications for Food Safety and Public Health

Food Safety and Health, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 125-137, January 2026.
In the Qatari cuisine, seafood showed significantly elevated mercury concentrations, whereas arsenic was more evenly distributed across the different foods. Although arsenic exposure was low (HQ < 0.2), mercury posed a high risk (HQ 7.9–9.3; HI > 8), highlighting seafood as the dominant dietary source of heavy metal exposure. ABSTRACT Heavy metals have
