Experimental Evidence of Ciguatoxin Accumulation and Depuration in Carnivorous Lionfish

Experimental Evidence of Ciguatoxin Accumulation and Depuration in Carnivorous Lionfish

Ciguatera poisoning is a food intoxication associated with the consumption of fish or shellfish contaminated, through trophic transfer, with ciguatoxins (CTXs). In this study, we developed an experimental model to assess the trophic transfer of CTXs from herbivorous parrotfish, <i>Chlorurus mi...
