Article Synopsis
- - Two juvenile Lagocephalus sceleratus fish were caught in the North Aegean Sea in 2017, and a new detection tool for tetrodotoxins (TTXs), which are harmful neurotoxins, was tested on them.
- - The detection tool found TTXs in both fish, with some tissues containing toxin levels near or above 2 mg/kg, challenging the earlier assumption that these juveniles were non-toxic.
- - This is the first report of high TTX levels in small Lagocephalus sceleratus, raising concerns about consumer safety as these toxic fish can be confused with edible species, emphasizing the need for accessible TTX detection tools to ensure seafood safety.
