Diarrhetic shellfish poisoning in the UK
Lancet, The, 1998Diarrhetic 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,

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

In our ongoing search for bioactive metabolites from marine organisms, novel shellfish poisons have been isolated. Pinnatoxins, which are amphoteric polyether compounds, were purified from the Okinawan bivalve Pinna muricata. Pinnatoxins show acute toxicity against mice and activate Ca2+ channels.

Paralytic shellfish poisoning and palytoxin poisoning in dogs
Veterinary Record, 2020Background Fatal cases of exposure to paralytic shellfish toxins and palytoxins have occurred in companion animals but are poorly described. Methods We describe one case of paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) and three cases of ...

Beware of amnesic shellfish poisoning
Nursing, 2017I work in an ED in a coastal area where fishing is a popular pastime. What's amnesic shellfish poisoning? What are the signs and symptoms? Is any treatment available?—N.W., CALIF.Michelle Wooten, BSN, BS, RN, and Bridget Parsh, RN, EdD, CNS, respond: Amnesic shellfish poisoning (ASP) was first ...

Biomarkers of Neurotoxic Shellfish Poisoning
Toxicon, 2008Urine 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

Paralytic shellfish poisons (PSP) are the toxins responsible for acute and often fatal poisonings caused by the consumption of certain shellfish. The phenomenon has been known since prehistoric times. A thorough docuinen tation of the incidents can be found in HALSTEAD’S treatise on poisonousmarine organisms (7).

Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning: A Review
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1977SUMMARY Paralytic shellfish poisoning (psp) in man results from the consumption of mussels, clams, and oysters that have fed on toxic dinoflagellates. Motile, marine protozoa of the dinoflagellate group often produce “blooms,” i.e., red tides, which color the sea. Not all genera or species are toxic to fish and mammals, nor are the toxic principles the
