Amnesic shellfish poison

Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2004
Amnesic shellfish poisoning (ASP) is caused by consumption of shellfish that have accumulated domoic acid, a neurotoxin produced by some strains of phytoplankton. The neurotoxic properties of domoic acid result in neuronal degeneration and necrosis in specific regions of the hippocampus. A serious outbreak of ASP occurred in Canada in 1987 and involved

Diarrhetic shellfish poisoning in the UK

The Lancet, 1998
Diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) is a rapid-onset intoxication caused by the ingestion of shellfish contamined with phycotoxins. Marine dinoflagellates of the species Dinophysis and Prorocentrum produce toxins (particularly okadaic acid and the dinophysis toxins [DTXs 1–4]) which, when concentrated to high levels by filter feeding bivalve molluscs,

Biomarkers of Neurotoxic Shellfish Poisoning

Toxicon, 2008
Urine specimens from patients diagnosed with neurotoxic shellfish poisoning (NSP) were examined for biomarkers of brevetoxin intoxication. Brevetoxins were concentrated from urine by using solid-phase extraction (SPE), and analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Urine extracts
