Investigation of Multiple Cyanotoxins in Toxic Lake Aerosols
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).

Understanding the occurrence of cyanobacteria and cyanotoxins
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 ...

Efficiency of Bank Filtration in the Removal of Cyanotoxins Under Different Levels of Nutrients
Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) are an increasing concern not only in Nebraska, but across the world. Increasing global temperatures in conjunction with overuse of synthetic fertilizers are leading causes to the increasing frequency and concern of HABs.

[Hepatotoxicity of the microcystin cyanotoxin].
At public health, there is increasingly interest on evaluating the possibility of human intoxication by biotoxins from blue-green algae, mainly the hepatotoxins from the microcystin group. Microcystin, a monocyclic heptapeptide, is mainly produced by a cyanobacteria called Microcistis aeruginosa.

Fate and Transport of Cyanotoxins in Agricultural Environments
Global presence of cyanotoxins has brought attention to risks associated with toxin contaminated water used for irrigation and the potential to introduce new exposure pathways. Studies into accumulation and morphological effects of cyanotoxin exposure on

Control measures for cyanobacteria and cyanotoxins in drinking water
Algal bloom can represent a serious consequence of the eutrophication of surface water. Some of these algae, called cyanobacteria, are of particular interest for their effect on human health due to their capacity to produce cyanotoxins. In many countries,
