Abstract

Phycotoxins are toxic substances which are generated by varieties of algae; marine phycotoxins are particularly dangerous to the neurological welfare of children. The types of marine phycotoxins, their neurotoxic action, and the management of exposure in children are all examined in this paper. It is just in this case that the patient undergoes early evaluation of signs of a chronic illness, and the prevention of the worsening of the condition and its impact on the neurological system. In total, the present research aims at analyzing the short and the long-term effects of the mentioned toxins with the purpose of providing a broad look at the risks they present to neurodevelopment of children.
