Neurotoxin poisoned in Buzios bound in Algarve

Neurotoxin found in a buzzing buzz from Algarway causes sedatives in humans, if not well prepared before taking mollusk, the researcher of the University of Algarve (ULAGL) has warned today.

The Sandra Laz has analyzed 25 horns, joined the UALG Sea Science Center (CCMAR) team between November 2021 and October 2022 and told the Lusa Agency that the results were showing itAnd 76% of people have tetrodotoxin levels than the maximum limit that is considered safe for human consumption By the European Food Security Agency.

Horn is a handmade mollusk, which is usually with a hand used to make dishes like FijodaBut the researcher warns that if neurotoxin is not removed properly by effective elimination before taking neurotoxin, its use is adapted to health hazards.

According to Sandra, the master’s article of Maria Pies, the first author of the article published in the magazine “Food Control”, has been found to have toxins in the densities that are not considered safe for human consumption in 25 horns, 25 horns.

The risk of death

It is a neurotoxin, which can not only cause some gastrointestinal problems ”, but in high concentrations, and if it is an elderly or child, it can also lead to a cardiospiratory stop or death”Clear.

Balloon is in fish and knows in Asian countries, where their use is “there are already a lot of cases of deceased people”, Tetrodotoxin is “developing toxin” in Europe, which is currently not regulated or monitored in the European Union because it has recently been found in “European territory”Justified.

Asked about the causes of pollution, Sandra replied that the study was also analyzed by Starfish, the normal diet of the horns, but only the presence of toxin in the same places.

“This toxin is produced by bacteria. And we know that it has existed here. But the vector who led to the horns is still studying. We know that the star is a potential vector, but there may be other types of bait, because it is carnivores, opportunistic carnage,” he said.

Does not eliminate boil toxin

In addition to scientific tasks, Sandra Laz has emphasized that there are causes of public health and it is important to warn the population of this neurotoxin, which is important to warn the population, which is “It is especially in the visceral part, intestinal, stomach, bladder, but it is not in the muscles.”

“If it is well reversed, it will not risk it, but it can be taken this risk if it is properly manipulated”He said The horns do not remove the boiling or freezing toxin and only the use of visa to be effective and removed is safe.

Finding the cause of the horns is now the goal of a new study of this CCMAR team, which is already funded for this purpose, the researcher is expected to start work this year.
