Accumulation and effects of cyanobacterial microcystins and anatoxin-a on benthic larvae of Chironomus spp. (Diptera: Chironomidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2014
Larvae of Chironomidae are distributed world-wide and are very abundant in eutrophic water bodies affected by cyanobacterial blooms. However, there is little information on the effect of cyanobacteria and their metabolites on these aquatic organisms. Our

The Occurrence of Potential Harmful Cyanobacteria and Cyanotoxins in the Obrzyca River (Poland), a Source of Drinking Water

open access: yesToxins, 2020
Harmful cyanobacteria and their cyanotoxins may contaminate drinking water resources and their effective control remains challenging. The present study reports on cyanobacterial blooms and associated cyanotoxins in the Obrzyca River, a source of drinking

The Elbe Estuary Microbiome Shifts With Salinity and Discharge and Depends on Fresh Organic Matter and Nutrient Availability

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Microbial diversity within the Elbe Estuary was found to be more strongly governed by seasonal variability, salinity, and discharge than by spatial heterogeneity. Oligohaline regions sustain high diversity, while nutrient and redox conditions drive functional shifts.

Sources and Occurrence of Cyanotoxins Worldwide

open access: yes, 2009
The eutrophication of water resources, mainly attributed to antrophogenic activities such as sewage and agricultural runoffs, has led to a worldwide increase in the formation of cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (Cyano-HABs).

Toxicity at the Edge of Life: A Review on Cyanobacterial Toxins from Extreme Environments

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2017
Cyanotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by cyanobacteria, of varied chemical nature and toxic effects. Although cyanobacteria thrive in all kinds of ecosystems on Earth even under very harsh conditions, current knowledge on cyanotoxin distribution

Removal of cyanotoxins by cyclodextrin complex, titanium dioxide photocatalysis and C₆₀ photocataly

open access: yes, 2010
The presence of cyanotoxins in surface and drinking water is a serious threat to the environment and human health. The most dangerous and widespread cyanotoxins include the microcystin and nodularin families (hepatotoxin), domoic acid (neurotoxin), and ...

State of knowledge and concerns on cyanobacterial blooms and cyanotoxins

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2013
Cyanobacteria are ubiquitous microorganisms considered as important contributors to the formation of Earth's atmosphere and nitrogen fixation. However, they are also frequently associated with toxic blooms.

Bloom dynamics of cyanobacteria and their toxins: environmental health impacts and mitigation strategies

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Cyanobacteria are ecologically one of the most prolific groups of phototrophic prokaryotes in both marine and freshwater habitats. Both the beneficial and detrimental aspects of cyanobacteria are of considerable significance.
