  • Title: Poisonous marine morsels.
    Author: Harrison LJ.
    Journal: J Fla Med Assoc; 1991 Apr; 78(4):219-21. PubMed ID: 2056299.
    Abstract:
    Consumption of seafood is increasing and physicians should know more about ichthyosarcotoxism, or fish-flesh poisoning. It appears in a variety of forms: poisoning, ciguatera, tetrodotoxin and scombroid poisoning. Ingestion of certain marine turtles and mammals also has been incriminated as the cause of illness. Paralytic shellfish poisoning can be deadly. In addition, red tide may cause respiratory problems.
