How the Neurotoxin β-<i>N</i>-Methylamino-<span style="font-variant: small-caps">l</span>-Alanine Accumulates in Bivalves: Distribution of the Different Accumulation Fractions among Organs
The environmental neurotoxin β-methylamino-<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">l</span>-alanine (BMAA) may represent a risk for human health. BMAA accumulates in freshwater and marine organisms consumed by humans. However, few data are available about the kinetics...
