| Pfiesteria: From Biology to Human Health Purchase This Issue | Pfiesteria piscicida and similar organisms have generated much
controversy in the field of public health. Research to define the extent
of exposure and degree of human illness associated with these marine dinoflagellates
is still in progress. |
