Cyanobacteria, Cyanotoxins, and Neurodegenerative Diseases: Dangerous Liaisons [PDF]
The prevalence of neurodegenerative disease (ND) is increasing, partly owing to extensions in lifespan, with a larger percentage of members living to an older age, but the ND aetiology and pathogenesis are not fully understood, and effective treatments are still lacking.

Is qPCR a Reliable Indicator of Cyanotoxin Risk in Freshwater?
The wide distribution of cyanobacteria in aquatic environments leads to the risk of water contamination by cyanotoxins, which generate environmental and public health issues.

Microcystin Prevalence throughout Lentic Waterbodies in Coastal Southern California. [PDF]
Toxin producing cyanobacterial blooms have increased globally in recent decades in both frequency and intensity. Despite the recognition of this growing risk, the extent and magnitude of cyanobacterial blooms and cyanotoxin prevalence is poorly ...

Reporting of Freshwater Cyanobacterial Poisoning in Terrestrial Wildlife: A Systematic Map
Global warming and over-enrichment of freshwater systems have led to an increase in harmful cyanobacterial blooms (cyanoHABs), affecting human and animal health.

Cyanotoxins: methods and approaches for their analysis and detection [PDF]
Cyanotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by cyanobacteria, a group of photosynthetic prokaryota especially found in freshwater. In favourable conditions (i.e. high nutrient levels, light intensity, water temperature), cyanobacteria can form blooms,

Toxicity of cyanobacteria. Organotropy of cyanotoxins and toxicodynamics of cyanotoxins by species [PDF]
As a result of blooming, some cyanobacteria (Microcystis, Anabaena, Planktothrix, etc.) produce toxins at concentrations that are high enough to poison and even kill animals and humans. According to Annex II of the Framework Directive 2000/60/EC, transformed into the Bulgarian legislation, for the characterization of surface water, at this stage, there

Toxic cyanobacteria have been shown to accumulate in drinking water treatment plants that are susceptible to algal blooms. However, the risk for plants that do not experience algal blooms, but that receive a low influx of cells, is not well known.

Recreational exposure during algal bloom in carrasco beach, uruguay: A liver failure case report [PDF]
In January 2015, a 20-month-old child and her family took part in recreational activities at Carrasco and Malvín beaches (Montevideo, Uruguay). An intense harmful algae bloom (HAB) was developing along the coast at that time.
