The number of migraine treatments and our understanding of migraine pathophysiology are both increasing. Newer treatments focus on migraine prevention. Botulinum toxin (BTX) is a potent neurotoxin used primarily to treat diseases associated with increased muscle activity.

BACKGROUND The injection of botulinum toxin type A for cosmetic proposes is a popular procedure, although the interpretation of its effectiveness still poses a challenge. In fact, although the methods that evaluate the efficacy of the treatment are validated and reliable, they are usually based on subjective scales, while an objective and quantitative scale is still needed. OBJECTIVES I propo...
Marine toxins, such as saxitoxin and domoic acid are associated with algae blooms and can bioaccumulate in shell fish which present both health and economic concerns. The ability to detect the presence of toxin is paramount for the administration of the correct supportive care in case of intoxication; environmental monitoring to detect the presence of toxin is also important for prevention of i...
