Presence of CTXs in moray eels and dusky groupers in the marine environment of the Canary Islandsds
(Elsevier, 2020-01-31)
Local population frequently consumes moray eels and dusky groupers from the Canary Islands. These species are top predators and the interactions between them include predation but also, in some cases, ...
Electrochemical biosensor for the dual detection of Gambierdiscus australes and Gambierdiscus excentricus in field samples. First report of G. excentricus in the Balearic Islands
(Elsevier, 2021-10-13)
Several genera of marine dinoflagellates are known to produce bioactive compounds that affect human health. Among them, Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa stand out for their ability to produce several toxins, ...
Alternative Methods for the Detection of Emerging Marine Toxins: Biosensors, Biochemical Assays and Cell-Based Assays
(MDPI, 2014-11-26)
The emergence of marine toxins in water and seafood may have a considerable impact on public health. Although the tendency in Europe is to consolidate, when possible, official reference methods based ...
β-cyclodextrin polymer as tetrodotoxins scavenger in oyster extracts
(Elsevier, 2024-04-16)
Tetrodotoxins (TTXs) are potent marine neurotoxins involved in poisoning cases in humans after consumption of some marine organisms. A cell-based assay (CBA) providing toxicological information is a ...
Detoxification of paralytic shellfish poisoning toxins in naturally contaminated mussels, clams and scallops by an industrial procedure
(Elsevier, 2020-05-04)
Paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) episodes cause important economic impacts due to closure of shellfish production areas in order to protect human health. These closures, if are frequent and persistent, ...
Accumulation of C-CTX1 in Muscle Tissue of Goldfish (Carassius auratus) by Dietary Experience
(MDPI, 2021-01-19)
Ciguatoxins (CTXs) are produced by dinoflagellates usually present in tropical and subtropical waters. These toxins are bioaccumulated and transformed in fish causing ciguatera fish poisoning (CFP) in ...
The roses ocean and human health chair: A new way to engage the public in oceans and human health challenges
(MDPI, 2020-07-14)
Involving and engaging stakeholders is crucial for studying and managing the complex interactions between marine ecosystems and human health and wellbeing. The Oceans and Human Health Chair was founded ...
Immobilisation of Neuro-2a cells on electrodes and electrochemical detection of MTT formazan crystals to assess their viability
(Elsevier, 2022-09-24)
Marine toxins are potent toxic compounds that may reach humans and poison them. Therefore, their detection in seafood is crucial to prevent intoxication cases. Colorimetric cell-based assays (CBAs) have ...
Addressing the analytical challenges for the detection of ciguatoxins using an electrochemical biosensor
(American Chemical Society, 2020-03-05)
The importance of ciguatoxins (CTXs) in seafood safety and their emerging occurrence in locations far away from tropical areas highlight the need for simple and low-cost methods for the sensitive and ...
Automated Patch Clamp for the Detection of Tetrodotoxin in Pufferfish Samples
(MDPI, 2024-04-15)
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. ...
