PARALYTIC SHELLFISH POISON-I

NIPPON SUISAN GAKKAISHI, 1962
1. A series of paralytic shellfish poisoning occurred from eating “akazara-gai”, a kind of scallop (Chlamys sp.) in Ofunato City, Iwate Prefecture from May 18 to 20, 1961, in which 20 persons including one death developed symptoms. The epidemiological data indicated that the outbreak was quite similar, to that reported in foreign countries. 2.

A Dual Functional Cardioinyocyte-based Hybrid-biosensor for the Detection of Diarrhetic Shellfish Poisoning and Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning Toxins

Analytical Sciences, 2018
Okadaic acid (OA) and saxitoxin (STX) are typical toxins of diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) and paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP), respectively, which are highly toxic marine toxins threatening human health and environmental safety. OA is a potent

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 ...

Harmful and toxic algae [PDF]

, 2001
The chapter provides basic facts about harmful and toxic algae. It also discusses the conditions that stimulate their occurrence, different types of harmful and toxic algal blooms and their effects to fish and marine environment. The different strategies

Ingestion of Alexandrium pacificum Cysts by a Deposit Feeder: An Option for Ecosystem‐Based Approach Benefiting Aquaculture and Coastal Communities?

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
Harmful algal blooms caused by the paralytic shellfish toxin‐producing species Alexandrium pacificum have increased in recent years in one of the most important aquaculture regions of New Zealand, the Marlborough Sounds. Reoccurring blooms have created large cysts beds in the sediments throughout the sounds. In this region, large populations of the sea

Marine Algal Toxins and Public Health: Insights from Shellfish and Fish, the Main Biological Vectors

Marine Drugs
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 ...

Removal of Paralytic Shellfish Toxins by Probiotic Lactic Acid Bacteria

Toxins, 2014
Paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs) are non-protein neurotoxins produced by saltwater dinoflagellates and freshwater cyanobacteria. The ability of Lactobacillus rhamnosus strains GG and LC-705 (in viable and non-viable forms) to remove PSTs (saxitoxin (STX)

Grazer‐induced bioluminescence and toxicity in marine dinoflagellates

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 12, Page 3769-3783, December 2025.
Abstract Marine copepods are the most abundant multicellular zooplankton in the global oceans. They imprint their surrounding waters with a unique bouquet of chemical compounds, including polar lipids such as copepodamides. Prey organisms can detect copepodamides and respond by inducing defensive traits including bioluminescence, toxin production ...

Integrative Monitoring of Marine and Freshwater Harmful Algae in Washington State for Public Health Protection

Toxins, 2015
The more frequent occurrence of both marine and freshwater toxic algal blooms and recent problems with new toxic events have increased the risk for illness and negatively impacted sustainable public access to safe shellfish and recreational waters in ...
