Saxitoxin(STX),one of the most toxic paralytic shellfish poisons discovered to date,is listed as a required item of aquatic product safety inspection worldwide.However,conventional detection methods for STX are limite...
Cyanotoxins are distinctive molecules in Cyanobacteria whose evolutionary origin, radiation and ecological role are still controversial. The cyanobacterium Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii is alternately capable of prod...
This study was supported by the key project of the National 10th Five-Year Plan Program;the research project title was research and development of red tide microalgal toxin (2001BA707B03)
Objective Impact of the presence of bacteria associated with a marine dinoflagellate, Alexandrium tamarense CI01, on the growth and toxin production of the algae in batch culture was investigated. Methods Pronounced c...
AIM: The effect of trans-cinnamaldehyde (CNMA) on the release of norepinephrine (NE) from nerve terminal was investigated using rat pheochromocytoma 12 (PC-12) cells. METHODS: The amount of NA released from PC-12 cell...
