Is Yessotoxin the Main Phycotoxin in Croatian Waters?
Marine Drugs, 2010 With the aim of investigating whether yessotoxin (YTX) is responsible for diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) events in Croatian waters, three different methods were combined: a modified mouse bioassay (MBA) that discriminates YTX from other DSP toxins,

Apoptosis and Oxidative Stress in Human Intestinal Epithelial Caco-2 Cells Caused by Marine Phycotoxin Azaspiracid-2 [PDF]
ToxinsWhen humans consume seafood contaminated by lipophilic polyether phycotoxins, such as azaspiracids (AZAs), the toxins are mainly leached and absorbed in the small intestine, potentially causing intestinal damage.

Polystyrene Microplastics Can Aggravate the Damage of the Intestinal Microenvironment Caused by Okadaic Acid: A Prevalent Algal Toxin [PDF]
Marine DrugsAs emerging contaminants, microplastics (MPs) may pose a threat to human health. Their co-exposure with the widespread phycotoxin okadaic acid (OA), a marine toxin known to cause gastrointestinal toxicity, may exacerbate health risk and raise public ...

Aerosolizable Marine Phycotoxins and Human Health Effects: In Vitro Support for the Biogenics Hypothesis [PDF]
Marine Drugs, 2020 Respiratory exposure to marine phycotoxins is of increasing concern. Inhalation of sea spray aerosols (SSAs), during harmful Karenia brevis and Ostreopsis ovata blooms induces respiratory distress among others. The biogenics hypothesis, however, suggests

Combined Cytotoxicity of the Phycotoxin Okadaic Acid and Mycotoxins on Intestinal and Neuroblastoma Human Cell Models [PDF]
Toxins, 2018 Mycotoxins are emerging toxins in the marine environment, which can co-occur with algal toxins to exert synergistic or antagonistic effects for human seafood consumption.

Comparison of seasonal and spatial phycotoxin profiles of mussels from South Bulgarian coast [PDF]
, 2020 Phycotoxins (marine algal toxins) are toxic metabolites released by certain phytoplankton species. They can be responsible for seafood poisoning outbreaks because filter-feeding mollusks, such as mussels, can accumulate these toxins throughout the food ...

Method improvement for phycotoxin extraction of marine mammals´ tissues and body fluids [PDF]
, 2022 Phycotoxins are natural metabolites produced by several species of microalgae. Under favourable environmental conditions such as light, nutrients, temperature and salinity, those algae species can grow exponentially and form dense aggregations.

Phycotoxin contents during a long-term mesocosm study in Gullmar Fjord Sweden in 2013
, 2021 The phycotoxin contents were measured in 2013 during a long-term mesocosm CO2 experiment in Gullmar Fjord (Sweden). The natural plankton community was enclosed in ten pelagic mesocosms and five of the mesocosms were enriched with CO2 to simulate end-of ...
