Natural high proliferations of toxin-producing microorganisms in marine and freshwater
environments result in dreadful consequences at the socioeconomically and environmental …

Several species of microalgae can produce potent phycotoxins that negatively affect aquatic
organisms and their consumers following different exposure routes, as well as toxicokinetic …

Abstract Harmful Algae Blooms (HAB) have been documented for at least fifty years in Latin
America and the Caribbean (LAC), however, their impacts at social, ecological and …

Marine heatwaves (MHWs) are a major concern worldwide due to their increasing impacts in
recent years, and these extreme events may trigger deoxygenation of coastal waters …

Dinophysis is an obligate mixotroph that relies on consumption of the ciliate, Mesodinium
rubrum, to grow and form harmful algal blooms (HABs). In this study, blooms of Dinophysis …

Optical water types (OWTs) can represent diverse ranges of Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a), total
suspended matter (TSM), and colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) concentrations …

For the purpose of assessing human health exposure, it is necessary to characterize the
toxins present in a given area and their potential impact on commercial species. The goal of …

This study aimed to form a basis for future predictive modeling efforts in support of the
harmful algal blooms (HAB) surveillance program currently in force in the Brazilian State of …

Algal toxins are involved in the mortality and/or illness of marine organisms via consumption
of contaminated prey, or upon direct exposure to toxic cells. In this study, the presence of …

Marine lipophilic phycotoxins (MLPs) are produced by toxigenic microalgae and cause
foodborne illnesses. However, there is little information on the trophic transfer potential of …
