Anti-cyanobacterial activity of Moringa oleifera seeds [PDF]
Filtrates from crushed Moringa oleifera seeds were tested for their effects on growth and Photosystem II efficiency of the common bloom-forming cyanobacterium Microcystis aeruginosa. M.

Assimilation of diazotrophic nitrogen into pelagic food webs. [PDF]
The fate of diazotrophic nitrogen (N(D)) fixed by planktonic cyanobacteria in pelagic food webs remains unresolved, particularly for toxic cyanophytes that are selectively avoided by most herbivorous zooplankton.

Roles of Nutrient Limitation on Western Lake Erie CyanoHAB Toxin Production
Cyanobacterial harmful algal bloom (CyanoHAB) proliferation is a global problem impacting ecosystem and human health. Western Lake Erie (WLE) typically endures two highly toxic CyanoHABs during summer: a Microcystis spp.

Nanoparticles as a control for cyanobacterial bloom
This study aims to investigate the toxicity of copper material synthesized by chemical reduction method and effects of environmental variables on growth of phytoplankton community (dominated by Microcystis genus) in the Tien eutrophic lake, Hanoi, Vietnam. The variables analyzed include: physical (pH and Turbidity), chemical (content of NH4+, PO43- and

This review summarizes current knowledge on sediment dredging to control eutrophication. Emphasis has been given to the effectiveness and environmental impacts of dredging, the release of nutrients from sediment, and the response of cyanobacterial bloom ...

Cyanobacteria tend to become the dominant phytoplankton component in eutrophic freshwater environments during warmer seasons. However, general observations of cyanobacterial adaptive advantages in these circumstances are insufficient to explain the ...

Conventional processes (coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation, and filtration) are widely used in drinking water treatment plants and are considered a good treatment strategy to eliminate cyanobacterial cells and cell-bound cyanotoxins.

Coagulation and precipitation of cyanobacterial blooms
Eutrophication is the prime water quality issue in inland waters. Eutrophication and its key symptom, harmful cyanobacterial blooms, is expected to further increase in the future, which highlights the importance of managing the issue. The reduction of external nutrient load is crucial but might not bring fast relief to eutrophic waters due to ongoing ...

Cyanobacterial bloom detection based on coherence between ferrybox observations
Cyanobacterial bloom detection from flow-through optical sensors on ships-of-opportunity ('ferryboxes') is challenging in periods of strong stratification and due to varying cell physiology and phytoplankton community composition.

Local nutrient regimes determine site-specific environmental triggers of cyanobacterial and microcystin variability in urban lakes [PDF]
Toxic cyanobacterial blooms in urban lakes present serious health hazards to humans and animals and require effective management strategies. Managing such blooms requires a sufficient understanding of the controlling environmental factors.
