Abstract
The proposed project should enhance the safety of human and animal foods. The Analytical Toxicology Section of the California Animal Health and Food Safety laboratory (CAHFS) is requesting funding to develop analytical methods for detecting microcystins in fish tissues with the goal of assessing and preventing contamination of fish based foods and feeds in the food supply of the domestic animal and human food chain. Microcystins are an important One Health issue, in that it impacts wildlife, domestic animals, and people alike. They are found in both degraded and oligotrophic waterways and can contribute significant damage to ecosystems.
