The potent neurotoxin saxitoxin (STX) belongs to a group of structurally related analogues, collectively known as the paralytic shellfish toxins, produced by both marine and freshwater phytoplankton. This group of toxins act by blocking the voltage-gated sodium channels, halting the inflow of sodium ions and the subsequent generation of action potentials. While acute exposure has been well researched, with safety guidelines applied, chronic low dose exposure from neither marine or freshwater sources has been investigated. Given the role of cellular electrical activity in neurodevelopment this latter pattern of exposure may be of significant public health concern. This background has been addressed in chapter 1; “Low dose extended exposure t...
