Studies on the toxification of puffer fish - I. Production to tetrodotoxin by the intestinal bacteria of a puffer fish Takifugu niphobles.

NIPPON SUISAN GAKKAISHI, 1989
We surveyed tetrodotoxin (TTX) production on 15 bactria strains isolated from the intestine of a puffer fish caught at Hakatajima, Ehime Prefecture, where the puffer fish is highly toxic. The mouse bioassay revealed that all culture broths were none toxic or very weakly toxic with the exception of one strain (code-named SA-4).
