Detoxification of pyrodinium-generated paralytic shellfish poisoning toxin in Perna viridis from western Samar, Philippines
Share
Abstract
The results are presented of procedures for the detoxification of paralytic shellfish poisoning toxin using ozone, chlorine and PVP-iodine. Findings indicate ozone and PVP-iodine to effectively inactivate the toxins isolated from Perna viridis ; however, further investigations are recommended.
