Modelling of paralytic shellfish toxin biotransformations in the course of Crassostrea gigas detoxification kinetics

► Importance of toxic paralytic shellfish toxins biotransformation during detoxification process in contaminated oysters. ► Using mathematical models, biotransformations do not seem to play an important role. ► The best model obtained was an aggregated model with a simple one-compartment model based on two major compounds.
