Article Synopsis
- A study conducted in 2014 assessed phycotoxin contamination in shellfish from the Northern Bering Sea and Chukchi Sea, identifying 13 toxin components through advanced mass spectrometry.
- The most common hydrophilic toxins detected included saxitoxin and its derivatives at concentrations significantly above safety standards, while lipophilic toxins like spirolide-1 and yessotoxin were found at lower levels.
- The findings suggest that contamination levels in sub-Arctic and Arctic shellfish may be more extensive than previously understood, emphasizing the need for ongoing monitoring of both common and economically important shellfish species in these regions.
