A "red tide" bloom of Gonyaulax polyedra occurred in Italy in Autumn, 1988. Algal concentrated extracts and undiluted water samples from the bloom were tested both with the Microtox system and a mouse bioassay, revealing the presence of paralytic shellfish poison-like neurotoxins. Saxitoxin levels evaluated on the basis of toxicological and instrumental analysis showed discrepancies. Other toxins could be present in addition to paralytic shellfish poison.
1988年秋季，意大利发生了多甲藻赤潮。对赤潮中的藻类浓缩提取物和未稀释水样进行了微毒性系统和小鼠生物测定测试，结果显示存在麻痹性贝类毒素样神经毒素。基于毒理学和仪器分析评估的石房蛤毒素水平存在差异。除麻痹性贝类毒素外，可能还存在其他毒素。
