Description

Abstract
The toxins in the new gastropods Oliva miniacea, O. mustelina and O. nirasei implicated in a food paralytic poisoning incident in South Taiwan in Feburary 2002 were studied. The remaining gastropods were divided into digestive gland and edible portion and determined for toxicity by using tetrodotoxin (TTX) bioassay. It was found that the three species of gastropods contained moderate amounts of toxin in edible portion only, and the highest toxicity score was 18 MU/g for O. miniacea, 10 MU/g for O. mustelina, and 27 MU/g for O. nirasei. The toxin was partially purified from the toxic specimens of each species by ultrafiltration using a YM-1 membrane, followed by chromatography on Bio-Gel P-2 column. Analyses by high performance liquid chromatography, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry showed that the toxin from O. miniacea, O. nirasei and O. mustelina contained TTX, and related compounds 4-epi TTX and anhydro-TTX. The paralytic shellfish poisons were not found. Hence, the causative agents in these gastropod species implicated in this food poisoning incident were identified as TTX and related substances.
