Arsenic occurs naturally in many types of seafood as water- and fat-soluble organoarsenic compounds. Although water-soluble compounds have been well characterized, the fat-soluble compounds, so-called arsenolipids, have until recently remained unknown. We report that sashimi-grade tuna fish, with a total

In this opinion paper the toxicokinetic behaviour of arsenosugars is reviewed and compared with that of inorganic arsenic and arsenobetaine. It is concluded that the arsenosugars are similar to inorganic arsenic in terms of metabolite formation and tissue accumulation. As
