In general seafood is safe, tasty and nutritious, but there are some naturally occurring toxins that can make seafood dangerous for consumers. One such toxin is domoic acid, a potent neurotoxin produced by microscopic diatoms of the genus Pseudo-nitzschia.

Phytoplankton studies in Peter the Great Bay (Sea of Japan) revealed three species of the genus Pseudo-nitzschia H. Perag. in H. et M. Peragallo, namely, P. pungens (Grun. ex Cl.) Hasle; P. multiseries (Grun.) Hasle, and P. pseudodelicatissima Hasle. Mass blooms of P. pungens and P. multiseries were registered in Amurskii Bay in June 1992. The maxi...
We applied molecular methods using a DNA probe and fluorescently tagged lectins to discriminate toxic Pseudo-nitzschia multiseries from the Chinhae Bay for a Korean harmfulalgae monitoring program. From the binding activity of lectins, P. multistriata, P. subfraudulenta, P. pungens, P. multiseries and P. cuspidata bound ConA, whereas P. subpacifica...
