A cooked meal remnant and uncooked portion of a Caribbean barracuda suspected in ciguatera fish poisoning were examined for the presence of ciguatoxins (CTX). Samples were analysed using a tiered method of CTX analysis consisting of in vitro cell (N2a) assay to assess composite toxicity and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for structural confirmation. Meal remnant and uncooked fish extracts were cytotoxic by N2a cell assay and Caribbean ciguatoxin congener C-CTX-1 was structurally confirmed. Sample extracts were fractionated by LC and fractions analysed by the cell assay. The cytotoxicity profiles of cooked meal remnant and uncooked fish were similar. Cytotoxicity-guided LC-MS/MS analyses identified several CTX congeners contributing to the composite toxicity of the samples. C-CTX-1 was a major contributor, supporting its utility as a biomarker of Caribbean ciguatoxic fish. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
