Appendix 2
Samples of mussels mm to study algal toxins
Chapter 1
Examination of algal toxins
1) Study of DSP toxins:
Mussels mm should be examined for fat-soluble diarrhea-causing algal toxins (DSP toxin) and the DSP-related toxins yessotoxins (YTX) pectenotoxins (PTX) and azaspiracids (AZA) throughout the year.
2) Study of PSP toxins:
Mussels mm must be tested for paralytic algal toxins (PSP toxins) routinely during the period 1 April to 30 September. In the period from 1 October to 31 March, all opening samples of mussels mm analyzed for PSP toxins and all other samples when the Region North, the Food Department Viborg, estimates that there is a risk of occurrence of PSP Toxic Algae in a production area or a breeding facility and PSP toxin in mussels mm
3) Study of ASP toxins:
Each opening samples of mussels mm to be analyzed for amnesic algal toxins (ASP toxins). In addition, samples of mussels mm studied for ASP toxins in periods of bloom of Pseudo-nitzschia algae in the production area, in breeding plants and in plants that make cleaning, conditioning and udsanding and when Region North, the Food Department Viborg, estimates that is the risk of occurrence of ASP toxins in mussels mm
Chapter 2
Collection and storage of samples
1) Samples of wild mussels mm removed from positions that are representative of the part of the production area, which is harvested.
2) Samples of live mussels mm from breeding facilities consisting of line cultures or other sample is selected so that each sample representative of the part of the breeding plant to be harvested from. Each sample must also be representative of the entire length of the lanyard and must be taken upstream of the facility.
3) For all analyzes of mussels mm used generally cooked mussels. The heat treatment process for opening clams mm should be a mild heat treatment approximately 30 sec. in boiling water or a brief treatment with steam, so that the mussels opens and the mussel meat can be easily taken out. Raw mussels, etc. may also be examined.
4) To analyze the content of PSP toxins and DSP toxins the aggregate sample must consist of at least 500 g mussels mm shell. In periods where there is only examined for DSP toxins, the sample must consist of at least 300 g mussels mm shell.
5) To analyze the content of ASP toxins, each sample consist of at least 300 g mussels mm shell.
6) Sampling must be carried out so that samples can be positively identified. The samples must be labeled:
a) Art of mussels mm
b) Date of sampling.
c) Sampling Position in degrees and decimal minutes with 3 decimal places, as indicated in the WGS 84 system. Rearing units are exempted from informing sampling position.
d) Production area number and possible. geographical name.
e) Vessel number and name or farming installation's permit number.
f) Number of the registration document.
g) The text "test for algal poison analysis DSP", "try to algal poison analysis DSP and PSP" and "try to algal poison analysis ASP" depending on the sample type.
7) enhanced monitoring samples must be also marked with the words "enhanced surveillance".
8) Samples of live mussels mm have until heat treatment, stored such that the mussels mm is kept alive.
9) Samples of meat cooked or raw clams mm to be frozen and stored frozen until shipment. This can be waived on condition that the meat of mussels mm instead stored chilled so that the hygienic quality does not deteriorate.
10) Any counter-samples of mussels, etc. that are not submitted for analysis should be frozen in cooked or raw state and stored at frozen for at least 4 weeks.
Chapter 3
Submission of samples
1) Samples of heat-treated or raw clams, etc. must be packed and sent so that the hygienic quality of the mussels mm does not deteriorate.
2) Samples must urgently and the day after landing sent for analysis at a laboratory approved for the purpose by the Food Authority.
Chapter 4
Analysis of samples
1) The laboratory shall upon receipt of samples of mussels mm ensure that the mussels mm is satisfactory hygienic quality.
2) The laboratory must begin the analysis as soon as possible and generally no later than the day after sample receipt
3) Samples for analysis for DSP, PSP and ASP toxins must not be pooled.
Methods for the determination of the DSP and DSP toxins related toxins
1) To detect DSP toxins and DSP-related toxins (yessotoxins, pectenotoxins and azaspiracids) used mouse bio. The procedures laid down in the EU's harmonized MBA standard operating procedure.
2) The maximum level of DSP-toxin is considered to have been exceeded when two out of three mice die within 24 hours, corresponding to a content of about 160 ug okadaic acid equivalents / kg of whole mussel.
3) All samples in which mice responding in the test mouse to be examined by chemical analysis by means of liquid chromatography and mass specific detection (LC / MS methods).
4) LC / MS methods to be used for verification of results from bioassay where ambiguous results occur and as extra security during periods of general greater risk for the presence of DSP toxin in the production areas.

Quantitative studies
1) The quantitative algal studies to be performed on water samples collected as mixed samples provided. This Annex, section 1, no. 4-6.
2) The quantification of the potentially toxic algae is carried out by means of inverted microscope and epifluorescence microscopy, see. P. Andersen and J. Throndsen, "Estimating Cell Numbers", (2003), and GM Hallegraeff, Anderson DM and AD Cembella (eds.) "Manual on Harmful Marine Microalgae", p. 99-130, (2003), UNESCO Publishing.
3) By using the inverted microscope and a chamber volume of less than or equal to 25 ml sedimentationstiden should be at least 12 hours. For the purposes of the chamber volumes larger than 25 ml sedimentationstiden should be at least 24 hours.
4) The quantification of algae, the concentrations of less than 10,000 cells / l is carried out by counting the count in the entire area.
5) By using a count volume of 25 ml and enumeration of the entire corresponding the count area found by one cell to 40 cells / L (= 0.04 cells / ml). When this concentration based on the detection of a single cell algae, with a consequent great uncertainty in the calculated concentration may be used in practice a lower concentration limit for detection of the concentration of algae of 100 cells / l. This means that there are found two algal cells by the count of the count area throughout.
6) At concentrations of algae greater than 10,000 cells / l can be counted on the strands of the count area.
7) concentrations equivalent to, or exceeding the recommended limit values, determined with a precision so 95% confidence interval of max. 30% of the calculated average concentration. This means that there should be counted> 50 cells. This means that there must be counted 30 cells, that one can say that the concentration is determined by +/- 30% at a confidence level of 95%.
8) In order to determine the concentration of the species from the genera Dinophysis and Alexandrium at or above the recommended limit of 500 cells / l with this security, they must be quantified using sample volumes of 50-200 ml. This must be done using sedimentationskamre or using epifluorescence microscopy based on nedfiltrering and staining of the thekate dinoflagellates with Calcofluor White, see. P. Andersen and HS Kristensen, "Rapid and precise identification of thecate Dinoflagellates Using epifluorescence microscopy" (1995) and "Proceedings from the 6th International Conference on Toxic Marine Phytoplankton", Nantes 1993, p. 713-718, (1995), Lavoisier, Paris.
9) All results are reported in table form, indicating the species name and the calculated concentration of the quantified species.
10) If a species is only recorded in the qualitative analysis, or if the species recorded in a concentration of less than 100 cells / l, it is set with an X in the table.
