Toxicity of cyanobacteria. Organotropy of cyanotoxins and toxicodynamics of cyanotoxins by species [PDF]
Pharmacia, 2019 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.

Assessment of Common Cyanotoxins in Cyanobacteria of Biological Loess Crusts [PDF]
Toxins, 2022 Cyanotoxins are a diverse group of bioactive compounds produced by cyanobacteria that have adverse effects on human and animal health. While the phenomenon of cyanotoxin production in aquatic environments is well studied, research on cyanotoxins in ...

Cyanotoxins in Serbia and water treatment procedures for their elimination [PDF]
Geographica Pannonica, 2012 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.

Cyanotoxins, biosynthetic gene clusters, and factors modulating cyanotoxin biosynthesis
World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2023 Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (CHABs) are a global environmental concern that encompasses public health issues, water availability, and water quality owing to the production of various secondary metabolites (SMs), including cyanotoxins in freshwater, brackish water, and marine ecosystems.

Degradation of cyanotoxins (microcystin) in drinking water using photoelectrooxidation
Brazilian Journal of BiologyThe discharge of sewage and industrial effluents containing high concentrations of pollutants in water bodies increases eutrophication. Cyanobacteria, some of the organisms whose growth is promoted by high nutrient concentrations, are resistant and ...

Cyanotoxins Occurrence in Portugal: A New Report on Their Recent Multiplication
Toxins, 2020 Historical reports show that in Portugal, cyanotoxins reports were mainly in the Center (cylindrospermopsins) and South (cylindrospermopsins, saxitoxins) regions of the country apart from the well distributed microcystins.

Cyanotoxins and the Nervous System [PDF]
Toxins, 2021 Cyanobacteria are capable of producing a wide range of bioactive compounds with many considered to be toxins. Although there are a number of toxicological outcomes with respect to cyanobacterial exposure, this review aims to examine those which affect the central nervous system (CNS) or have neurotoxicological properties. Such exposures can be acute or
