Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Ciguatera fish poisoning (CFP) is usually a nonfatal illness such as fever and diarrhea, caused by ingestion of various fishes living in the tropics and subtropics. Here, we studied some organic compounds which detoxified CFP, isolated from some medical plants and marine organisms in Southern area. We also carried out the structure-activity relationship study of the related compounds about bromopyrroles, bromoindoles, and capsaicins.
