Automated Patch Clamp for the Detection of Tetrodotoxin in Pufferfish Samples. [PDF]

Mar Drugs
Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a marine toxin responsible for many intoxications around the world. Its presence in some pufferfish species and, as recently reported, in shellfish, poses a serious health concern. Although TTX is not routinely monitored, there is a

Monthly Variation of Tetrodotoxin Levels in Pufferfish (Lagocephalus sceleratus) Caught from Antalya Bay, Mediterranean Sea

Marine Drugs, 2023
The silver-cheeked toadfish (Lagocephalus sceleratus), an invasive alien pufferfish species that has rapidly settled throughout the Mediterranean region, poses significant threats not only to native marine species and fisheries but also to public health ...

Assessment of Human Health Impacts from Invasive Pufferfish (Attacks, Poisonings and Fatalities) across the Eastern Mediterranean. [PDF]

Biology (Basel)
Simple Summary Invasive alien species are a global threat to biodiversity, ecosystem services (e.g., tourism and fisheries) and human health. Pufferfishes are notorious for their toxicity and may also display aggressive behavior, thus posing a threat to ...

EVOLUTION OF PUFFERFISH INFLATION BEHAVIOR [PDF]

Evolution, 1997
The evolution of the extraordinary inflation mechanism of pufferfishes was studied in the light of an independently derived phylogenetic hypothesis of tetraodontiform fishes. Inflation behavior is found in all members of the puffer sister taxa Tetraodontidae and Diodontidae.

Growth, Cannibalism, and 5-TH Metabolism in Pufferfish (Takifugu obscurus ♀ × Takifugu rubripes): The Role of Graded Levels of Dietary Tryptophan

Aquaculture Nutrition, 2023
The objective of this study was to investigate the potential effect of graded levels of tryptophan on the growth, cannibalism, and 5-hydroxytryptpamine (5-TH) metabolism in pufferfish (Takifugu obscurus ♀ × Takifugu rubripes ♂).

Tetraodon genome confirms Takifugu findings : most fish are ancient polyploids [PDF]

, 2004
An evolutionary hypothesis suggested by studies of the genome of the tiger pufferfish Takifugu rubripes has now been confirmed by comparison with the genome of a close relative, the spotted green pufferfish Tetraodon nigroviridis.
