BM-CTX-Cmel

Freeze-dried biological rmaterial prepared from an equivalent 10 g (wet weight) flesh tissue of jacks (Caranx melampygus) naturally contaminated with ciguatoxins (CTXs) [1].

BM-CTX-Cmel will usefully assist analysts in assessing analytical methods classically used to monitor known CTX analogs in fish [2] (e.g. CBA-N2a, RBA, LC-MS/MS).
