A. AbdallahNat Inst. of Oceanography and Fisheries,BOKELY, ALEXANDRIA, EgyptA sensitive HPLC method fordeterminati<strong>on</strong> of paralytic shellfishpois<strong>on</strong>ing (PSP) based <strong>on</strong> i<strong>on</strong>-pairchromatographic separati<strong>on</strong> of PSPtoxins, post-column oxidati<strong>on</strong> withperiodic acid, and fluorescencedetecti<strong>on</strong> has been used todetermine toxin profiles ofAlexandrium minutum. Totalc<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s of PSP were 305and 390 µg/100g mussels in Mytilusand D<strong>on</strong>ax, respectively. Thec<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s of decarbamoyltoxins in both species were muchhigher than the c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s ofcarbomoyl toxins. In the case of thesum of STXeq, the c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong> inMytilus spp. 166 µg/100g musselswas higher (three fold) than thatfound in D<strong>on</strong>ax spp. (64µg/100 gmussels). The most dominant toxinam<strong>on</strong>g the carbomoyl toxins in bothspecies was CTX2. This is the firstreport in the literature of PSP toxinc<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s in mussels from theMediterranean coast nearAlexandria.PO.08-26Lack of effect of temperature <strong>on</strong>the depurati<strong>on</strong> of domoic acidfrom the king scallop PectenmaximusSessi<strong>on</strong>: PO.08 - ToxicologyCP Acosta 1 , C Mariño 1 , H Martín 2 , JBlanco 11 C. Invest. Mariñas, VILANOVA DEAROUSA, Spain2 Centro Tecnológico del Mar CETMAR,VIGO, SpainSome previous observati<strong>on</strong>s, inlaboratory and field studies, havesuggested that temperature plays aforemost role in c<strong>on</strong>trolling thevelocity of depurati<strong>on</strong> of domoicacid from the scallop Pectenmaximus. We maintained scallopsat temperatures of 13 to 19 ºCduring ca. 75 days and checked theeffect of this factor <strong>on</strong> the domoicacid c<strong>on</strong>tents of four bodycompartments (digestive gland,adductor muscle, g<strong>on</strong>ad andremaining tissues). No significanteffect of temperature <strong>on</strong> the finaldomoic acid c<strong>on</strong>tent was detectedin any of the studied compartmentsnor in the total soft tissues. A slightincrease in the toxins in theadductor muscle to the total pool oftoxins was the <strong>on</strong>ly effect detected.PO.15-09DNA extracti<strong>on</strong> method fromharmful microalgae that ispotentially applicable to an in situquantitative real-time PCRdetecti<strong>on</strong>Sessi<strong>on</strong>: PO.15 - M<strong>on</strong>itoringMasao Adachi 1 , CM Prest<strong>on</strong> 2 , R MarinIII 2 , CA Scholin 21 Kochi Univ., NANKOKU, Kochi Pref.,Japan2 MBARI, MOSS LANDING, United Statesof AmericaVarious DNA extracti<strong>on</strong> protocolsare in use today for quantitativereal-time PCR detecti<strong>on</strong> (QPCR) ofHAB species.
