Investigation of Multiple Cyanotoxins in Toxic Lake Aerosols [PDF]
, 2022 Aerosols from freshwater lakes with toxigenic cyanobacteria pose a potentially serious threat to humans and wildlife. The most studied route of exposure to cyanotoxins is direct consumption (i.e., drinking contaminated water or eating contaminated food).

Bloom-forming cyanobacteria, cyanotoxins and significant factors for their dynamics in freshwaters. [PDF]
, 2019 Toxic cyanobacteria blooms in freshwaters cause a complex water quality issue. Therefore, it is crucial to assess the emerging challenges of global warming and anthropogenic eutrophication that intensify blooms, shift the composition of potentially toxic

Inventory of Animal Contamination by Cyanotoxins in Africa
, 2021 International audienceThis study reviews work on the accumulation of cyanotoxins in fish and various animals in Africa. Microcystins (MC-LR, MC-RR, and MC-YR) appear to be the main contaminating toxin in fish and other animals.

Human health effects of cyanotoxins
, 2019 Cyanobacteria have colonized almost all terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems although they are more abundant in freshwaters, where they can grow up to very high densities, forming blooms and scums. Increasing occurrence of blooms, in terms of extension and

Role of cyanotoxins in the development and promotion of cancer
Cyanotoxins are primarily produced by different species of cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae, and have appeared to be environmental poisons that have various toxic effects on animal health, including humans.

Understanding the occurrence of cyanobacteria and cyanotoxins
, 2021 This chapter provides a general introduction to key traits of cyanobacteria that support their proliferation in aquatic ecosystems. Under acidic conditions, cyanobacteria are rarely found in sufficiently high cell density to cause detectable levels of ...
