Further Advance of Gambierdiscus Species in the Canary Islands, with the First Report of Gambierdiscus belizeanus
(MDPI, 2020-10-31)
Ciguatera Poisoning (CP) is a human food-borne poisoning that has been known since ancient times to be found mainly in tropical and subtropical areas, which occurs when fish or very rarely invertebrates ...
Cyclodextrin polymers as passive sampling materials for lipophilic marine toxins in Prorocentrum lima cultures and a Dinophysis sacculus bloom in the NW Mediterranean Sea
(Elsevier, 2021-07-09)
Cyclodextrins, cyclic oligomers that form a conical structure with an internal cavity, are proposed as new and sustainable materials for passive sampling of lipophilic marine toxins. Two applicability ...
New information about the toxicological profile of Prorocentrum panamense (Prorocentrales, Dinophyceae) and its global distribution
(Wiley, 2022-02-07)
Dinoflagellates of the genera Prorocentrum and Dinophysis are known producers of toxic compounds belonging to the okadaic acid (OA) group. The ingestion of shellfish contaminated with these toxins causes ...
Identification of New CTX Analogues in Fish from the Madeira and Selvagens Archipelagos by Neuro-2a CBA and LC-HRMS
(MDPI, 2022-03-29)
Ciguatera Poisoning (CP) is caused by consumption of fish or invertebrates contaminated with ciguatoxins (CTXs). Presently CP is a public concern in some temperate regions, such as Macaronesia (North-Eastern ...
Ciguatoxin-like toxicity distribution in flesh of amberjack (Seriola spp.) and dusky grouper (Epinephelus marginatus)
(Elsevier, 2023-04-10)
Ciguatoxins (CTXs) are marine neurotoxins that cause ciguatera poisoning (CP), mainly through the consumption of fish. The distribution of CTXs in fish is known to be unequal. Studies have shown that ...
Detecting harmful algal blooms with nucleic acid amplification-based biotechnological tools
(Elsevier, 2020-08-10)
Harmful algal blooms (HABs) represent a growing threat to aquatic ecosystems and humans. Effective HAB management and mitigation efforts strongly rely on the availability of timely and in-situ tools for ...
Distribution, identification and cytotoxicity of Gambierdiscus (Dinophyceae) in the Atlantic Selvagens Islands (Madeira, Portugal): a ciguatera gateway to Europe
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2022-07-18)
The emerging threat of ciguatera poisoning (CP) in Europe has been associated with fish captured in the Canary Islands (Spain) and Selvagens Islands (Portugal). The first are heavily populated islands ...
Ciguatoxin Detection in Flesh and Liver of Relevant Fish Species from the Canary Islands
(MDPI, 2022-01-09)
The Canary Islands are a ciguatoxin (CTX) hotspot with an established official monitoring for the detection of CTX in fish flesh from the authorised points of first sale. Fish caught by recreational ...
Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa as potential indicators of ciguatera risk in the Balearic Islands
(Elsevier, 2020-10-22)
Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa are genera of toxic dinoflagellates which were mainly considered as endemic to marine intertropical areas, and that are well known as producers of ciguatoxins (CTXs) and ...
A Roadmap for Hazard Monitoring and Risk Assessment of Marine Biotoxins on the Basis of Chemical and Biological Test Systems
(ALTEX Edition, 2013-11-01)
Aquatic food accounts for over 40% of global animal food products, and the potential contamination with toxins of algal origin – marine biotoxins – poses a health threat for consumers. The gold standards ...
