Abstract
⺠Bivalves that had eaten Gymnodinium catenatum can cause PSP outbreaks in Portugal. ⺠Toxin ingestion and toxin presence in the fluids of one of these victims were reported. ⺠In cockles the toxin profile was dominated by sulfamate and decarbamoyl groups. ⺠In urine toxin profile were also dominated by sulfamate and decarbamoyl groups. ⺠Compounds with an O-sulfate at C11, abundant in the bivalve, were absent in urine.
