Bivalvia Details: NCBI 6544, gram-negative or unknown [class]

| bivalves| Bivalvia| Lamellibranchiata| Pelecypoda

1. Food Poisoning: Bivalves can accumulate bacteria, viruses, and toxins from their environment, particularly if they are harvested from contaminated waters. Consumption of raw or undercooked bivalves that are contaminated with pathogens such as Vibrio spp., norovirus, or hepatitis A virus can lead to foodborne illnesses such as gastroenteritis.

2. Allergic Reactions: Some individuals may be allergic to proteins found in certain bivalves, leading to allergic reactions ranging from mild itching and swelling to more severe symptoms such as difficulty breathing and anaphylaxis.

3. Shellfish Poisoning: Certain species of bivalves can produce toxins such as saxitoxin, domoic acid, and brevetoxin, which can accumulate in their tissues during harmful algal blooms. Consumption of bivalves contaminated with these toxins can result in various types of shellfish poisoning, including paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP), amnesic shellfish poisoning (ASP), and neurotoxic shellfish poisoning (NSP), which can cause neurological symptoms and, in severe cases, can be life-threatening.

4. Heavy Metal Contamination: Bivalves can accumulate heavy metals such as mercury, cadmium, and lead from their environment. Chronic consumption of bivalves contaminated with high levels of heavy metals may pose health risks, particularly to vulnerable populations such as pregnant women and young children.

Lab Reporting

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.

Desired Levels Suggestions for Bivalvia

• Frequency - how often do samples show this bacteria
• UD - An alternative statistical algorithm (which factors in the frequency)
• Kaltoft-Moldrup Heuristic Using uploaded data
• Lab Low and High are calculated using the formula that most labs use: Mean - 2 Standard Deviation to Mean + 2 Standard Deviation

These are values that are computed from lab specific samples (Patent Pending)
