Programme objectives:RAS7026, RAF7014 and RLA7022

  • To build regional capacity for the management of ciguatera

and other sodium channel toxins through:

  • Risk assessment

Toxins characterization, species of fish, distribution of risk clinical data, epidemiology.

  • Risk management

Detection methods for toxins, mutual recognition, regulations, availability of standards and CRMs, epidemiological data, traceability of food.

  • Risk communication
  • Information to consumers and professionals, action protocols,

species and areas at risk.

Short and midterm objectives  Enhance the capacity of Member States to address Ciguatera

Fish Poisoning (CFP) related Issues;

 Impart knowledge regarding the protocols in environmental

monitoring for CFP and standardization of the said protocols;

 Have trained personnel who could further disseminate the

technique;

 Harmonization of the applied analytical method;  Improve and harmonize the legal frame work for monitoring;  Improve mutual recognition of analytical reports and reduce

technical barriers for trade;

 Improve food safety; and  Reduce health hazard.

In order to manage Ciguatera it is crucial to understand on a regional basis the phenomenon and adapt potential monitoring programs and legislative decision to the regional circumstances. In the same time, the study of Ciguatera requires technical, scientific and management approaches that has been and will have to be developed on a global basis. In Monaco, 14 international experts were mobilized to contribute to this workshop.

Recommendations to the IAEA after NOAA workshop

One workshop is requested to address the RBA method validation / verification and the statistical approaches applied to data analysis and measurement results’ uncertainty estimation. A second workshop is proposed to address HABs monitoring programs that will require analysis on the needs and strategies for such programmes for participating Member State.

Challenges

The RBA application for the evaluation of PSP toxins is already validated and accepted by AOAC, ISSC in the USA. The RBA for ciguatera toxins is being implemented successfully in research and monitoring by specialized laboratories but its application to formal control is not yet accepted. The challenges include incomplete validation data due to unavailability of commercial certified standards and reference materials. Due to the numerous ciguatoxin analogs and to the complexity of fish matrices, efficient extraction procedures have difficulties to be harmonized into one single extraction method.

IAEA

The way forward

Participating countries have monitoring programs at different stages of

development. Each country should identify the needs of coastal populations and economical activities from a social perspective in order to carefully define monitoring programs and optimize resources. When defining monitoring strategies, each Member State should consider novel and cost-effective approaches, the use of volunteers for sampling, hazard identification/risk assessment and communication strategies such as media and smart phones applications.

RAS7026, RAF7014, RLA7022

SLIDE 26

IAEA

Research on Ciguatera and technological development are steadily advancing, and safety guidance levels have been proposed. However, strategic tools are still to be achieved: Certified reference standards, CRMs, formally validated methodology and confirmatory methodologies, toxin profiles in samples, toxicology data on CTXs derivatives, and more. Based on above, limitations of RBA should be recognized, the technique should not be promoted unless valid and reliable conclusion is reached.

The way forward
