Cyanotoxins and the Nervous System [PDF]
Toxins, 2021 Cyanobacteria are capable of producing a wide range of bioactive compounds with many considered to be toxins. Although there are a number of toxicological outcomes with respect to cyanobacterial exposure, this review aims to examine those which affect the central nervous system (CNS) or have neurotoxicological properties. Such exposures can be acute or

Cyanobacterial Diversity and the Presence of Microcystins in the Küçük Menderes River Basin, Turkey
Aquatic Sciences and Engineering, 2022 Although cyanobacteria are commonly associated with eutrophic lakes, they are the basic components of phytoplankton communities in lakes that have different trophic statuses.

Recent Advances in Cyanobacterial Cytotoxin Biosensors Focused on Cylindrospermopsin
Chemosensors, 2023 Cylindrospermopsin (CYN) is a freshwater algal toxin produced during the proliferation of harmful cyanobacteria, known as cyanobacterial algal blooms (cyano-HABs). Recently, the effects of global warming have facilitated the growth of cyano-HABs, leading
