Objectives: Typically, the Mouse BioAssay (MBA) is a method widely used in many laboratories for
analysis of marine biotoxins together with chromatographic (UPLC-MS) one [1].
The MBA will be banned from December 2014 by the amending Regulation (EC) Nº
2074/2005 of 10th January 2011. Based on this regulation, new alternative methods
are required for fast detection of biotoxins in aquatic environment and in shellfish
samples. The aim of this research work is to design and to characterize an
electrochemical (bio)sensor for rapid and sensitive detection of biotoxins.Financial support from CRUP (E-136/12)-MICINN- International Projects -
