Abstract
Aquatic toxins are a group of toxic compounds produced by several types of freshwater and marine algae and cyanobacteria and transported through the food chains of water bodies. Potential contamination of aquaculture products (raw and processed fish and seafood) with aquatic toxins requires the use of efficient screening methods for their control. In this study, a multiplex immunochromatographic test system for the simultaneous detection of three aquatic toxins-phycotoxins domoic acid (DA) and okadaic acid (OA), and cyanotoxin microcystin-LR (MC-LR)-is for the first time developed. For this, a competitive indirect immunochromatographic analysis (ICA) based on gold-labeled secondary antibodies was carried out. The LODs/cutoffs/working ranges of the ICA were 0.05/0.3/0.07-0.29, 1.3/100/3.2-58.2, and 0.1/2.0/0.2-1.1 ng/mL for MC-LR, DA, and OA, respectively. The assay duration was 18 min. The developed test system was used to analyze water samples from natural sources (salt and fresh water) and fish samples. For sample preparation of water, simple dilution with a buffer was proposed; for fish samples, methanol-water extraction was utilized. It was demonstrated that the triple LFIA specifically detected target aquatic toxins with recoveries of 85.0-121.5%. The developed multiplex LFIA can be considered a promising analytical solution for the rapid, easy, and sensitive control of water and food safety.

Abstract
In this investigation, a double immunochromatographic analysis (ICA) of two relevant phycotoxins, domoic acid (DA) and okadaic acid (OA), was developed for the first time. The ICA was performed in the indirect competitive format using gold nanoparticles conjugated with anti-species antibodies. Under optimal conditions, the instrumental detection limits/cutoffs for simultaneous detection of DA and OA were 1.2/100 and 0.1/2.5 ng/mL, respectively. The time of the assay was 18 min. The ICA was applied to test seawater and a large panel of seafood, including mussels, tiger shrimps, octopuses, whelks, crabs, and scallops. The proposed simple sample preparation method for seafood takes only 20 min. For seawater, a dilution by buffer was implemented. The assay recoveries varied from 80.8% to 124.5%. The competitive potential of the proposed technique as a tool to control natural water and seafood samples is determined by its simplicity, rapidity, and sensitivity.

Abstract
A lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) of phycotoxin domoic acid (DA) contaminating seawater and marine organisms was developed in this investigation. Nine clones of monoclonal antibodies against DA were produced and characterized. The test system was implemented in the indirect competitive format, where gold nanoparticles as a marker were conjugated with secondary antibodies. The developed test system allows for the detection of DA with a cutoff of 60 ng mL-1 and an instrumental detection limit of 1.4 ng mL-1 within 15 min. The LFIA was applied to detect DA in seawater, mussels, shrimps, and octopuses. A simple method of seafood sample preparation was proposed. The entire analytical cycle, from obtaining a sample to the estimation of final results, takes only 30 min. The assay recoveries ranged from 88.5% to 124%. The developed analytical method is a promising solution for rapid on-site monitoring of marine toxicants in water and food throughout the farm-to-fork chain.

Marine invertebrate interactions with Harmful Algal Blooms - Implications for One Health. J Invertebr Pathol 2021; 186:107555. [PMID: 33607127 DOI: 10.1016/j.jip.2021.107555] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2020] [Revised: 02/01/2021] [Accepted: 02/09/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Harmful Algal Blooms (HAB) are natural atypical proliferations of micro or macro algae in either marine or freshwater environments which have significant impacts on human, animal and ecosystem health. The causative HAB organisms are primarily dinoflagellates and diatoms in marine and cyanobacteria within freshwater ecosystems. Several hundred species of HABs, most commonly marine dinoflagellates affect animal and ecosystem health either directly through physical, chemical or biological impacts on surrounding organisms or indirectly through production of algal toxins which transfer through lower-level trophic organisms to higher level predators. Traditionally, a major focus of HABs has concerned their natural production of toxins which bioaccumulate in filter-feeding invertebrates, which with subsequent trophic transfer and biomagnification cause issues throughout the food web, including the human health of seafood consumers. Whilst in many regions of the world, regulations, monitoring and risk management strategies help mitigate against the impacts from HAB/invertebrate toxins upon human health, there is ever-expanding evidence describing enormous impacts upon invertebrate health, as well as the health of higher trophic level organisms and marine ecosystems. This paper provides an overview of HABs and their relationships with aquatic invertebrates, together with a review of their combined impacts on animal, human and ecosystem health. With HAB/invertebrate outbreaks expected in some regions at higher frequency and intensity in the coming decades, we discuss the needs for new science, multi-disciplinary assessment and communication which will be essential for ensuring a continued increasing supply of aquaculture foodstuffs for further generations.

Leyva V, Maruenda H. Assessment of the Presence of Lipophilic Phycotoxins in Scallops (Argopecten purpuratus) Farmed along Peruvian Coastal Waters. J Food Prot 2021; 84:204-212.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Some harmful algal blooms produce lipophilic marine biotoxins (LMTs) such as okadaic acid (OA; and its analogs dinophysistoxins [DTXs]), yessotoxins (YTXs), pectenotoxins (PTXs), and azaspiracids (AZAs), all of which may accumulate in filter-feeding bivalve mollusks. European health regulations stipulate a limit of 160 μg/kg for OA or DTXs, PTXs, and AZAs and 3.75 mg/kg for YTXs. Argopecten purpuratus is a valuable commercial marine bivalve exploited in Peru. Despite its importance and the periodic reports of the presence of harmful algal blooms in Peruvian coastal waters, information regarding potential contamination of these scallops by LMTs is lacking. We evaluated LMTs in 115 samples of A. purpuratus collected between November 2013 and March 2015 from 18 production areas distributed along the Peruvian coast. The hepatopancreas, which accumulates most of the toxins in the scallop, was analyzed with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry to quantify OA in its free form, YTX, AZA-1, and PTX-2. Baseline separation was achieved in 19 min. Linearity (R2 > 0.997), precision (coefficient of variation < 15%), and limits of quantification (0.155 to 0.479 ng/mL) were satisfactory. YTX was found in 72 samples, and PTX-2 was found in 17 samples, but concentrations of both biotoxins were below the regulatory limits. Free OA and AZA-1 were not detected in the scallop samples. This atypical profile (i.e., presence of PTX-2 and absence of OA) may be linked to the presence of the dinoflagellate Dinophysis acuminata. The production of YTX could be associated with the phytoplankton Gonyaulax spinifera and Protoceratium reticulatum. This is the first systematic assessment of the four types of LMTs in shellfish from Peruvian coastal waters. The results suggest low prevalence of LMTs in Peruvian bay scallops but support continued surveillance and analysis of LMTs in Peru. HIGHLIGHTS

Abstract
Diarrhetic shellfish toxins (DSTs) are among the most prevalent marine toxins in Europe's and in other temperate coastal regions. These toxins are produced by several dinoflagellate species; however, the contamination of the marine trophic chain is often attributed to species of the genus Dinophysis. This group of toxins, constituted by okadaic acid (OA) and analogous molecules (dinophysistoxins, DTXs), are highly harmful to humans, causing severe poisoning symptoms caused by the ingestion of contaminated seafood. Knowledge on the mode of action and toxicology of OA and the chemical characterization and accumulation of DSTs in seafood species (bivalves, gastropods and crustaceans) has significantly contributed to understand the impacts of these toxins in humans. Considerable information is however missing, particularly at the molecular and metabolic levels involving toxin uptake, distribution, compartmentalization and biotransformation and the interaction of DSTs with aquatic organisms. Recent contributions to the knowledge of DSTs arise from transcriptomics and proteomics research. Indeed, OMICs constitute a research field dedicated to the systematic analysis on the organisms' metabolisms. The methodologies used in OMICs are also highly effective to identify critical metabolic pathways affecting the physiology of the organisms. In this review, we analyze the main contributions provided so far by OMICs to DSTs research and discuss the prospects of OMICs with regard to the DSTs toxicology and the significance of these toxins to public health, food safety and aquaculture.

Purification, Toxicity and Functional Characterization of a New Proteinaceous Mussel Biotoxin from Bizerte Lagoon. Toxins (Basel) 2020; 12:toxins12080487.

Abstract
The marine environment is known to be occupied by microorganisms. The potential toxicity of some of these marine microorganisms, that are capable of producing unknown biotoxins, has always been underestimated. Indeed, these biotoxins may be a threat to human health through the consumption of contaminated seafood and fish. For more than ten years, recurrent but atypical toxicity has been detected in mussels from Bizerte lagoon (North of Tunisia) during routine tests. In this study, we have isolated and characterized a new proteinaceous marine biotoxin, named Mussel Toxic Peptide (MTP). Using HPLC, electrophoresis and LC/MS studies, we showed that MTP has a protein characteristic UV-spectrum, can be visualized by protein specific reagents such as Coomassie, and has a molecular mass of 6.4 kDa. Patch-clamp experiments performed on cultured N18 neuroblastoma cells revealed that MTP (0.9–18 µM) markedly inhibited voltage-gated Na current, but was about 23 times less active in blocking voltage-gated K current at equimolar concentrations. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that a proteinaceous marine biotoxin with relatively high molecular mass is isolated and involved in the contamination of mussels harvested from shellfish farming areas.
