Sentinel Animals in a One Health Approach to Harmful Cyanobacterial and Algal Blooms
People, domestic animals, and wildlife are all exposed to numerous environmental threats, including harmful algal blooms (HABs). However, because animals exhibit wide variations in diet, land use and biology, they are often more frequently or heavily ...

ABSTRACT The increasing demand for freshwater, in combination with climate change and pollution, compromises the quality and quantity of water resources. These pressures have intensified cyanobacterial blooms, including toxic events that threaten human health and aquatic ecosystems. This study complements the objectives of the Water Framework Directive

Dose-Response Modelling of Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning (PSP) in Humans
Paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) is caused by a group of marine toxins with saxitoxin (STX) as the reference compound. Symptoms in humans after consumption of contaminated shellfish vary from slight neurological and gastrointestinal effects to fatal ...

Production of antibodies for saxitoxin analysis and sensitivity analysis of anti-saxitoxin antiserum
해양미세조류 유래 독성물질에 대한 이해와 활용에 있어서 가장 중요하지만 간과되고 있는 부분은 독성물질을 검출할 수 있는 빠르고, 쉽고 경제적인 검출기술을 개발하는 것이다. 이 논문에서 우리는 삭시톡신(STX)에 대한 항체를 생산하였다. 헤모시아닌(mariculture keyhole limpet hemocyanin, mcKLH)과 오브알부민(ovalbumin, OVA)을 운반단백질로 사용하였다. 면역반응을 위해서 mcKLH-STX 결합체를 BALB/c 쥐에 복강주사하였다. 채혈 후 항-STX 항혈청을 분리하였다.
