Diarrhetic Shellfish Poisoning (DSP)

Diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) was first described in Japan as a new kind of a seafood disease. This is caused by eating mussels or scallops which are contaminated by poisonous plankton. At present, these poisons in shellfish are detected by bioassays using a large number of mice, which are very laborious and time consuming.

The <b>DSP-Check</b> enables more simple, easy and time saving detection of OA and (DTX1).
