Tetrodotoxin Retention in the Toxic Goby Yongeichthys criniger
To investigate tetrodotoxin (TTX) retention by the toxic goby Yongeichthys criniger, rearing experiments feeding nontoxic diets were conducted using 12 (Group I) and 17 (Group II) specimens collected from a natural environment.

Towards the timely detection of toxicants
We address the problem of enhancing the sensitivity of biosensors to the influence of toxicants, with an entropy method of analysis, denoted as CASSANDRA, recently invented for the specific purpose of studying non-stationary time series.
