Azaspiracid shellfish poisoning(AZP) is a foodborne intoxication associated with the consumption of contaminated shellfish harvested from waters affected by growth of certain types of toxic algae.... AZP is caused by the ingestion of toxins that accumulate in certain types of shellfish that have been feeding on the algae that produce the toxins. AZP is a form of food poisoning with symptoms typical of gastroenteritis, broadly similar to DSP [diarrhetic shellfish poisoning]. 3, record 2, English, - azaspiracid%20shellfish%20poisoning

Dans la plupart des États membres de l'Union européenne, l'incidence annuelle de la listériose humaine varie de deux à dix cas par million d'habitants. La listériose a un taux de létalité élevé qui en fait l'une des causes les plus fréquentes de décès parmi les maladies d'origine alimentaire. L'infection à L. monocytogenes est à l'origine de la plupart des hospitalisations (91 %) dues à des agents de toxi-infection alimentaire, et reste associée aussi bien à des cas isolés qu'à des épidémies qui surviennent partout dans le monde. 1, record 8, French, - agent%20de%20toxi%2Dinfection%20alimentaire

SEB is the toxin that most commonly causes classic food poisoning. It also has been demonstrated to cause a nonmenstrual toxic shock syndrome(TSS). SEB has been studied as a potential biological agent of war, since it easily can be aerosolized, is very stable, and can cause widespread systemic damage, multiorgan system failure, and even shock and death when inhaled at very high dosages. However, SEB is classified as an incapacitating agent because, in most cases, aerosol exposure results not in death, but in a temporary though profoundly incapacitating illness lasting as long as 2 weeks. 1, record 9, English, - staphylococcal%20enterotoxin%20B

L'entérotoxine B staphylococcique (SEB) est l'une des entérotoxines produites par Staphylococcus aureus. SEB est la mieux connue de ces entérotoxines staphylococciques (SE) et est considérée comme l'entérotoxine «type». [...] L'intoxication causée par SEB n'est en général pas létale, mais peut induire une morbidité aiguë passagère très intense et invalidante. Dans le cadre d'actions de malveillance, SEB pourrait être utilisée par aérosolisation avec pénétration de la toxine par inhalation, mais également par contamination d'aliments ou de réservoirs d'eau de distribution de faible volume. SEB est considérée comme une arme biologique potentielle du fait de son potentiel à «incapaciter» un très grand nombre de personnes simultanément. Elle a été largement étudiée comme «incapacitant» aux États-Unis dans les années 1960. 1, record 9, French, - ent%C3%A9rotoxine%20B%20staphylococcique

A pathological condition in humans caused by the consumption of certain marine mussels or clams that have fed on planktonic dinoflagellates belonging to the genus Gonyaulax. The mussels or clams become contaminated with a neurotoxin produced by the dinoflagellates, and subsequent consumption by humans results in respiratory or gastrointestinal distress. The condition occurs in conjunction with the phenomenon known as the Red Tide, a bloom of dinoflagellate population in marine waters. 3, record 11, English, - paralytic%20shellfish%20poisoning

La marée rouge est une prolifération d'algues qui crée des conditions potentiellement mortelles pour l'être humain. Lorsqu'une marée rouge survient, on relève une explosion de microorganismes appelés dinoflagellés qui produisent l'un des plus puissants poisons naturels au monde. Les mollusques bivalves (coques, moules, pétoncles, huîtres et palourdes) absorbent cette toxine lorsqu'ils consomment les algues en question. La toxine reste dans l'organisme des mollusques bivalves longtemps après que les conditions aient changé et il est impossible de savoir quels mollusques ont été contaminés.
