Alternative Title
Aspects of interest on the ciguatera in Cuba.
Abstract
Los pescadores caribeños alardean de poder descubrir cuando un pez es ciguato (contaminado con las toxinas del ciguatera) usando métodos propios, como llevar a cabo bioensayos como dar un pedazo del pez a un gato, verificando si las escamas se le caen a un peces recién capturado o si sus ojos son voluminosos o con poco brillo y que los pescadores creen vehementemente son pruebas apropiadas. Los archivos epidemiológicos en la muestra de Cuba recogen dos brotes de ciguatera por consumo de peces en la misma región del país asociada con la ingestión de este especie de pez, entonces mal identificado de Caranx fallax. Hay una necesidad urgente de identificar técnicas económicas para detectar diferentes complejos de toxinas del Ciguatera incluida palytoxinas y toxinas de diarreicas en el pez contaminado.
Caribbean fishermen boast of being able to detect when a fish is “ciguato” (contaminated with ciguatera toxins) by using folk methods, such as carrying out their own “bioassay” by feeding a piece of the fish to a cat, checking if the scales fall off a freshly caught fish, or if its eyes are bulky, that they vehemently claim to be appropriate tests. Epidemiological records in Cuba show there were in the past two Ciguatera Fish Poisoning (CFP) outbreaks in the same region of the country associated with the ingestion of the same kind of fish, then misidentified as Caranx fallax. There is an urgent need for economic techniques to detect different toxins.
