Abstract
Deze literatuurstudie bevat informatie betreffende het
'amnesic shellfish poisoning' (ASP) syndroom en de veroorzakende ASP
toxines, van welke "domoic acid" de belangrijkste component is. Chemische
structuren en detectie-methodes van ASP toxines, de bronnen voor ASP
toxines, mariene organismen welke geassocieerd worden met ASP toxines, de
toxiciteit van ASP toxines voor dier en mens, mogelijke preventieve
maatregelen voor ASP, ASP gevallen en controle van en regelingen voor ASP

een betere controle van het ASP probleem in de toekomst.
This review reports information on the amnesic shellfish poisoning (ASP) syndrome and the ASP toxins causing this poisoning, of which domoic acid is the major component. Data includes chemical structures and detection methods of ASP toxins, sources of ASP toxins, marine organisms associated with ASP, toxicity of ASP toxins for animals and humans, possible preventive measures for ASP, case reports/outbreaks of ASP and regulations and monitoring of ASP toxins. The review ends with several recommendations for better control of the ASP problem in the future.
