A competitive enzyme immunoassay for the quantitative analysis of tetrodotoxin in fish and shellfish.

Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a neurotoxin that is produced by various marine bacteria. The toxin can accumulate in certain species of fish and different marine bivalves (clams, oysters and mussels). The ingestion of contaminated seafood can have fatal consequences.

The EuroProxima Tetrodotoxin ELISA is a competitive enzyme immunoassay that is validated for the screening of fish and shellfish.
