Abstract
⺠Several brevetoxin metabolites were characterized in the hard clam (Mercenaria sp.). ⺠Products of oxidation, hydrolysis and amino acid/fatty acid conjugation were found. ⺠Cysteine and taurine conjugates of brevetoxin were of highest abundance. ⺠Potential biomarkers of brevetoxin exposure in clams were identified.
