Novel Toxicity Aspects of Cyanotoxins †
The occurrence of toxic cyanobacteria and their cyanotoxins production are increasing phenomena reported worldwide. Cyanotoxins, secondary metabolites of different cyanobacterial species, are considered a potential hazard that can become a risk for human

Cyanobacteria, Cyanotoxins, and Neurodegenerative Diseases: Dangerous Liaisons [PDF]
The prevalence of neurodegenerative disease (ND) is increasing, partly owing to extensions in lifespan, with a larger percentage of members living to an older age, but the ND aetiology and pathogenesis are not fully understood, and effective treatments ...

Determination of Cyanotoxins and Prymnesins in Water, Fish Tissue, and Other Matrices: A Review
Harmful algal blooms (HABs) and their toxins are a significant and continuing threat to aquatic life in freshwater, estuarine, and coastal water ecosystems. Scientific understanding of the impacts of HABs on aquatic ecosystems has been hampered, in part,

A Global Analysis of the Relationship between Concentrations of Microcystins in Water and Fish
Cyanobacteria, the primary bloom-forming organisms in fresh water, elicit a spectrum of problems in lentic systems. The most immediate concern for people and animals are cyanobacterial toxins, which have been detected at variable concentrations in water ...
