Marine biotoxins in shellfish |
|
Speaker: |
Robert Williams
Bob
Williams is a consultant environmental scientist, a research fellow at the
Plymouth Marine Science Labs and a visiting scientist at the University of
Plymouth.
Marine biotoxins are a natural phenomenon, in which planktonic algae produce
biological toxins that can accumulate temporarily within the shellfish that feed
on them. The toxins do not harm the algae or the shellfish but can cause three
kinds of food poisoning in humans: Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning (potentially
fatal), Diarrhoeic Shellfish Poisoning and Amnesiac Shellfish Poisoning.
The
occurrence of these plant toxins in our waters and the procedures and
regulations which are in place to protect humans in the consumption of live
bivalve molluscs will be discussed. |
