Progress on the investigation and monitoring of marine phycotoxins in China

Yubo Liang et al.

Summary: Marine toxins associated with shellfish poisoning have been investigated and monitored along the coast of China. Traditional monitoring methods have been replaced by new techniques, leading to the discovery of many new marine toxins. The most serious marine toxin in Chinese coastal waters is paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP), but other toxins such as diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP), ciguatera fish poisoning (CFP), palytoxin (PLTX), and neurotoxin beta-N-methylamino-L-alanine (BMAA) are also present.

Rising CO2 will increase toxicity of marine dinoflagellate Alexandrium minutum

Ziru Lian et al.

Summary: Increasing levels of CO2 can promote the growth and toxicity of toxic dinoflagellate Alexandrium minutum, leading to an increase in paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs) production. This study highlights the potential risk of ocean acidification on the formation and evolution of harmful algal blooms.

Pollution status, influencing factors and environmental risks of neonicotinoids, fipronil and its metabolites in a typical semi-closed bay in China

Xiuping He et al.

Summary: The study comprehensively investigated the occurrence, spatiotemporal variations, influence factors, and environmental risks of neonicotinoids and fipronil in Jiaozhou Bay, China. Both NEOs and FIPs were found to be predominant pesticides in the area, with higher concentrations observed in summer and autumn. Temperature and nitrogen-containing nutrients were identified as key factors affecting the distribution of these pesticides in the environment. Some rivers and sewage treatment plants were found to pose a certain risk of chronic toxicity for NEOs in summer. These findings highlight the importance of monitoring and addressing pesticide contamination in aquatic environments.

Perceived global increase in algal blooms is attributable to intensified monitoring and emerging bloom impacts

Gustaaf M. Hallegraeff et al.

Summary: According to an analysis of global harmful algal bloom events, it was found that there is no uniform increase in the global occurrence of these events over time. The recorded increase in events is primarily due to enhanced coastal monitoring and aquaculture practices.
