A Review of Common Cyanotoxins and Their Effects on Fish
Global warming and human-induced eutrophication drive the occurrence of various cyanotoxins in aquatic environments. These metabolites reveal diversified mechanisms of action, encompassing cyto-, neuro-, hepato-, nephro-, and neurotoxicity, and pose a ...

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

Statewide Intensification of Harmful Algal Blooms Across California Lakes and Reservoirs. [PDF]
Abstract Monitoring cyanobacteria is crucial for assessing water quality, safeguarding public health, and understanding ecosystem dynamics impacted by harmful algal blooms. This study explores the potential of satellite remote sensing (SRS) to assess risks of cyanotoxin exposure in California's recreational waters from 2002 to 2011 and 2016 to 2023 ...

Cyanotoxins in Serbia and water treatment procedures for their elimination [PDF]
Cyanotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by cyanobacteria, mainly as a result of eutrofication and water quality deterioration. The most common cyanotoxins are cyclic peptide hepatotoxins called microcystins.
