Abstract/Description
The Indian River Lagoon (IRL), a 156-mile-long estuary located on the eastern coast of Florida, experiences phytoplankton bloom events due to increased seasonal temperatures coupled with anthropogenic impacts. This study aimed to gather data on the toxicity to human cells and to identify secondary metabolites found in water samples collected in the IRL. Water samples from 20 sites of the IRL were collected during the wet and dry seasons over a three-year period. A panel of cell lines was used...
Show moreThe Indian River Lagoon (IRL), a 156-mile-long estuary located on the eastern coast of Florida, experiences phytoplankton bloom events due to increased seasonal temperatures coupled with anthropogenic impacts. This study aimed to gather data on the toxicity to human cells and to identify secondary metabolites found in water samples collected in the IRL. Water samples from 20 sites of the IRL were collected during the wet and dry seasons over a three-year period. A panel of cell lines was used to test cytotoxicity. Hemagglutination, hemolysis, and inhibition of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) were also measured. Cytotoxic blooms were seen both in the south (Microcystis) and the north (Pyrodinium) of the IRL. Each toxin induced a consistent pattern of cytotoxicity in the panel of human cell lines assayed. During blooms, cytotoxicity due to a single type of toxin is obvious from this pattern. In the absence of blooms, the cytotoxicity seen reflected either a mixture of toxins or it was caused by an unidentified toxin. These observations suggest that other toxins with the potential to be harmful to human health may be present in the IRL. Moreover, the presence of toxins in the IRL is not always associated with blooms of known toxin-producing organisms.

Show moreFlorida is a tropical paradise that attracts marine enthusiasts and seafood lovers from around the world. Its extensive waterways not only offer unique areas for us to explore but also provide essential habitat for marine life. Although you cannot see them, marine bacteria are common throughout Florida waters. Marine bacteria play an important role in environmental processes by breaking down organic matter or providing food for larger organisms. There are many different species of bacteria that live in Florida waters. They are natural inhabitants of marine environments and live in and on many aquatic organisms. Under certain conditions, one type of marine bacteria known as Vibrio is capable of causing wound infections and seafood sickness in people with weakened immune systems.

Florida Sea Grant: Frequently Asked Questions about Vibrio in Florida

Florida Sea Grant: Frequently Asked Questions about Vibrio in Florida.
Creator
Holly Abeels, Gabby Barbarite, Anita Wright, Peter J. McCarthy
Abstract/Description
Under certain conditions, one type of marine bacteria known as Vibrio is capable of causing wound infections and seafood sickness in people with weakened immune systems. Recently, the term “flesh-eating bacteria” has been used to refer to Vibrio. This description is false and misleading and causes unnecessary fear and panic. To ensure that your time on the water is safe and enjoyable, be aware of local hazards and follow these simple safety guidelines.

Pathogenic Vibrio Bacteria in Mangrove Snapper Meat.
Creator

Abstract/Description
Vibrio have been isolated from the guts and skin of fish from many environments as well as commercial fish products, however it is unknown if these pathogens naturally exist in the meat of foodfish. This study first investigated the association of Vibrio with Mangrove Snapper collected from the Indian River Lagoon to determine if its presence in their meat is natural or a product of contamination.

This study first investigated the association of Vibrio with Mangrove Snapper collected from the Indian River Lagoon to determine if its presence in their meat is natural or a product of contamination. The second part of this study was to identify Vibrio reservoirs within Mangrove Snapper to better understand how they can contaminate the meat during the filleting process. In addition, the effects of temperature abuse (a common food handling issue) and its duration, on Vibrio abundance, were also tested.

Abstract/Description
Numerous toxin-producing harmful algal (HAB) species occur in Florida’s coastal waters. Exposure to these toxins has been shown to have sublethal effects in sea turtles. The objective of this study was to establish concentrations of 10 HAB toxins in plasma samples from green turtles (Chelonia mydas) foraging in Florida’s Big Bend. Domoic acid, lyngbyatoxin-A, microcystins, nodularin, and okadaic acid were detected, demonstrating exposure to these HAB toxins, which are also a public health...
