Methods to detect cyanobacteria and their toxins in the environment
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2014Cyanobacteria blooms are since early times a cause for environmental concern because of their negative impact through the release of odors, water discoloration, and more dangerously through the release of toxic compounds (i.e. the cyanotoxins) that can affect both human and animal welfare. Surveillance of the aquatic ecosystems is therefore obligatory,

Biochemical Method for Quantitative Estimation of Cyanobacteria Toxins
, 2008It is shown the possibility of using the model reaction with cholinesterase inhibition for qualitative and quantitative determination of Cyanobacteria toxic metabolites in natural waters and algae cells. It was established that changes of cultural medium pH may be registered by spectrophotometric method with using of bromine thymol blue indicator or by

AbstractBlue‐green algae are found in lakes, ponds, rivers and brackish waters throughout the world. In case of excessive growth such as bloom formation, these bacteria can produce inherent toxins in quantities causing toxicity in mammals, including humans. These cyanotoxins include cyclic peptides and alkaloids.

Rapid analysis of peptide toxins in cyanobacteria
Journal of Chromatography A, 1988A quick and easy-to-perform method for routine analysis of cyanobacterial (blue-green algal) peptide toxins is proposed. The toxins are analysed by means of high-performance liquid chromatography using a recently developed internal surface reversed-phase column.

Scientific American, 1994
On May 2, 1878, George Francis of Adelaide, Australia, published the Þrst scholarly description of the potentially lethal eÝects produced by cyanobacteriaNthe microorganisms sometimes called blue-green algae or, more colloquially, pond scum. In a letter to Nature he noted that an alga he thought to be Nodularia spumigena had so proliferated in the ...

Degradation of cyanobacteria toxin by advanced oxidation processes
Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2008Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) using O(3), H(2)O(2), O(3)/H(2)O(2), O(3)/Fe(II), and Fenton treatment were investigated for the degradation of aqueous solutions of cyanobacteria. The effects of concentration of reactants, temperature, and pH on toxins degradation were monitored and the reaction kinetics was assessed.

Cyanobacteria are capable of producing a wide range of low-molecular-weight toxic compounds, largely identified as a result of poisoning incidents and through meticulous screening of cyanobacterial strains and blooms. Their molecular modes of action vary

Cyanobacteria and their toxins in Guanting Reservoir of Beijing, China
Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2008The present study investigated the cyanobacteria and one family of their toxins-microcystins (MCs) in Guanting Reservoir of Beijing, China. The dominant species in the cyanobacteria found in August and September of 2006 was Microcystis, which accounted 99% of total algal cells.
