During the symposium'Marine and Freshwater ToxinsAnalysis' held in Bai<strong>on</strong>a, Spain lastyear, we reported that following i.p.injecti<strong>on</strong> of PSP the mice showed atendency to die more quickly wheninjected in the morning compared tothose injected in the afterno<strong>on</strong>.Recently, we found the samephenomen<strong>on</strong> when okadaic acid(OA) was injected in mice. That is,mice injected with OA tended to diemore quickly when injected in themorning than when injected in theafterno<strong>on</strong>. Further, the death timefollowing injecti<strong>on</strong> of OA, wassignificantly different (p12µM-N.
