Emergent marine toxins risk assessment using molecular and chemical approaches
EFSA Journal, 2022 Cyanobacteria harmful blooms represent a deviation to the normal equilibrium in planktonic communities involving a rapid and uncontrolled growth. Owing to the capacity to produce toxins as secondary metabolites, cyanobacteria may cause huge economic ...

Cyanobacteria, microcystins and cylindrospermopsin in public drinking supply reservoirs of Brazil
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2014 Brazil has a history of blooms and contamination of freshwater systems by cyanobacterial toxins. The monitoring relevance of toxins from cyanobacteria in reservoirs for public supply is notorious given its high toxicity to mammals, included humans beings.
