Diarrhetic Shellfish Toxins and Other Lipophilic Toxins of Human Health Concern in Washington State
Abstract: The illness of three people in 2011 after their ingestion of mussels collected from Sequim Bay State Park, Washington State, USA, demonstrated the need to monitor diarrhetic shellfish toxins (DSTs) in Washington State for the protection of human health. Following these cases of diarrhetic...
