Scientists Discover Novel Way to Detect Low Level Exposure to Seafood Toxin

NOAA Scientists Discover Novel Way to Detect Low Level Exposure to Seafood Toxin: Students at Northwest Indian College Learn How to Conduct Tests. Martha Baskin reports on Green Acre Radio.

While high level exposure has long presented a significant health threat, the outcome of increasing low-level toxin threats was unknown. Subsistence shellfish harvesters, particularly in coastal and tribal communities, are most at risk.
