    > Yasumoto (1998) reports two toxins (Carchatoxins A and B) that were the
    probably the cause of an outbreak of food poisoning in Madagascar (in 1993 I
    think). However, whilst there is chromatographic data for the toxins there
    is no molecular characterisation. Has anyone done any further research on
    these or know of any other instances where these Carcharatoxins have been
    implicated in poisoning? Any information would be appreciated. Thanks
    for your time.
