  abstract = {{C}iguatera  poisoning  is  a  foodborne  illness  caused  by  the  consumption  of  seafood contaminated with ciguatoxins ({CTX}s) produced by dinoflagellates from the genera {G}ambierdiscus and {F}ukuyoa. {T}he suitability of {S}olid {P}hase {A}dsorption {T}oxin {T}racking ({SPATT}) technology for the monitoring of dissolved {CTX}s in the marine environment has recently been demonstrated. {T}o refine the  use  of  this  passive  monitoring  tool  in  ciguateric  areas,  the  effects  of  deployment  time  and sampler format on the adsorption of {CTX}s by {HP}20 resin were assessed in {A}naho {B}ay ({N}uku {H}iva {I}sland, {F}rench {P}olynesia), a well-known ciguatera hotspot. {T}oxicity data assessed by means of the mouse neuroblastoma cell-based assay ({CBA}-{N}2a) showed that a 24 h deployment of 2.5 g of resin allowed concentrating quantifiable amounts of {CTX}s on {SPATT} samplers. {T}he {CTX} levels varied with increasing deployment time, resin load, and surface area.  {I}n addition to {CTX}s, okadaic acid ({OA}) and dinophysistoxin-1 ({DTX}1) were also detected in {SPATT} extracts using liquid chromatographycoupled to tandem mass spectrometry ({LC}-{MS}/{MS}), consistent with the presence of {G}ambierdiscus and {P}rorocentrum species in the environment, as assessed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (q{PCR}) and high-throughput sequencing ({HTS}) metabarcoding analyses conducted on passive window screen ({WS}) artificial substrate samples. {A}lthough these preliminary findings await further confirmation in follow-up studies, they highlight the usefulness of {SPATT} samplers in the routine surveillance of {CP}risk on a temporal scale, and the monitoring of other phycotoxin-related risks in ciguatera-prone areas.},
