Abstract
A significant amount of tetrodotoxin was identified in the cultured cells of Alexandrium tamarense, a causative dinoflagellate of paralytic shellfish poisoning. This result supports the hypothesis that both tetrodotoxin and paralytic shellfish toxins can be detected in organisms which possess either of them, although their proportion is different individually. The present result also supports our previous finding that A. tamarense is the origin of tetrodotoxin detected in the highly toxic scallop Patinopecten yessoensis during the bloom of A. tamarense.Entities:
