Ciguatoxin: isolation and chemical nature.

P J Scheuer, W Takahashi, J Tsutsumi, T Yoshida.   

Abstract

Ciguatoxin, the agent responsible for ciguatera, a disease produced in humans from ingestion of certain fishes, has been isolated from specimens of the moray eel, Gymnothorax javanicus. The toxin is apparently a lipid containing quaternary nitrogen, hydroxyl, and carbonyl functions.
