Abstract
General aspects of diarrhetic shellfish poisoning including epidemiology, geographical distribution, magnitude of impacts to public health and shellfish industries are described. Succeeding to the previous identification of Dinophysis fortii as the origin of shellfish toxins and determination of dinophysistoxin -1 as 35( S )-methyl okadaic acid, isolation and structural determination of dinophysistoxin-3 and two novel polyether lactones named pectenotoxin-1 and -2, and identification of Dinophysis acuminata as the probable source of okadaic acid are newly reported.
