Analysis of toxin profiles in three different fish species causing ciguatera fish poisoning in Guadeloupe, French West Indies

Abstract: A grey snapper (Lutjanus griseus), a grouper (Serranidae) and a black jack (Caranx lugubris) were implicated in three different ciguatera poisonings in Guadeloupe, French West Indies. A mouse bioassay indicated toxicity for each specimens: 0.5-1, > or = 1 and > 1 MUg g(-1), respectively. After purification by gel filtration chromatography, the samples were analysed by high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The toxin profiles differ from one fish to another. C-CTX-1 was det… Show more

“…I-CTXs were first reported by Hamilton et al [96], isolated from red bass ( Lutjanus bohar ) and red emperor ( Lutjanus sebae ) fishes, and characterized by HPLC-MS in a similar way to previously reported for C-CTXs [97,98,147], with the exception of the chromatographic conditions. The conditions were modified to isocratic elution on a Zorbax 300SB (2.1 × 150 mm, 3.5 μm, Agilent) with acetonitrile:water:isopropanol (80:19:1) modified with 5 μM ammonium acetate or 0.1% formic acid.…”

“…The analysis of toxic fractions led to determination of five new CTX congeners at m/z for [M + H] + : 1,159.6, 1,143.6, 1,157.6, 1,127.6; plus several isomers of them and of the C-CTX-1, not previously reported. The same conditions allowed determination of some of these congeners in other fish species such as grey snapper ( Lutjanus griseus ), grouper ( Serranidae ) and a black jack ( Caranx lugubris ) [98], as well as in barracuda ( Sphyraena barracuda ), where ciguatoxins and also other hydroxyl-polyether compounds likely related to brevetoxins were identified [147]. …”

“…This is a risk many fishers are willing to take. (It should be noted that, unlike the Pacific, herbivorous fish have never been proven to be ciguatoxic in the Caribbean [Pottier et al, 2002]. )…”

“…Among these, CFP is most often associated with the ingestion of groupers, and moray eels (Pottier et al, 2002;Juranovic and Park, 1991). Since toxicity depends upon the bioaccumulation of CTX present in food sources to the fish (Llewellyn, 2009), the highest trophic-level consumers within the food web, such as groupers and moray eels, are therefore expected to accumulate the highest levels of CTX .…”
