Photodegradation of cyanotoxins in surface waters [PDF]
Cyanotoxin-producing harmful algal blooms (HABs) are a global occurrence and pose ecotoxicological threats to humans and animals alike. The presence of cyanotoxins can seriously harm or kill nearby wildlife and restrict a body of water's use as a drinking water supply and recreational site, making it imperative to fully understand their fate and ...

Physiological and Metabolic Responses of Marine Mussels Exposed to Toxic Cyanobacteria Microcystis aeruginosa and Chrysosporum ovalisporum [PDF]
Toxic cyanobacterial blooms are a major contaminant in inland aquatic ecosystems. Furthermore, toxic blooms are carried downstream by rivers and waterways to estuarine and coastal ecosystems. Concerning marine and estuarine animal species, very little is

Cultivation of Anabaena sp. at Different Phosphorus Excess Concentrations: Growth Parameters, Value-Added Metabolites, and Microcystin-LR Production. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Phosphorus is a key driver of cyanobacterial proliferation and the production of secondary metabolites in freshwater ecosystems. In this study, the effects of different phosphorus concentrations, including 7.10 (control treatment), 7.74, 8.38, and 9.66 mg L−1 (CP230, TP250, TP271, and TP312, respectively), on growth, valuable biochemicals, as ...

Analysis of the Use of Cylindrospermopsin and/or Microcystin-Contaminated Water in the Growth, Mineral Content, and Contamination of Spinacia oleracea and Lactuca sativa [PDF]
Cyanobacteria and cyanotoxins constitute a serious environmental and human health problem. Moreover, concerns are raised with the use of contaminated water in agriculture and vegetable production as this can lead to food contamination and human exposure ...
