Florida red tide (FRT) is caused by Karenia Brevis, a dinoflagellate that periodically blooms, releasing its potent neurotoxin, Brevetoxin, into the surrounding waters & air along the coast of the Gulf of Mexico. Exposure to FRT toxins has been associated with adverse human health effects & massive fish & marine mammal deaths. The articles in this reprint describe the ongoing interdisciplinary & interagency research program that characterizes the exposures & health effects of aerosolized FRT toxins (Brevetoxins). The ultimate goal is to develop appropriate prevention measures & medical interventions to mitigate or prevent adverse health effects from exposure to complex mixtures of aerosolized FRT toxins. Illustrations.Fleming, Lora E. is the author of 'Overview of Aerosolized Floridared Tide Toxins : Exposures and Effects: A Reprint from the Journal, Environmental Health Perspectives', published 2005 under ISBN 9781422301975 and ISBN 1422301974.
