Handbook of Cyanobacterial Monitoring and Cyanotoxin Analysis
Cyanobacteria are impacting widely on the daily activities of the general public. They are increasingly recognized as agents having possible adverse effects on water resources, on health of human and/or animals and therefore should be monitored and managed.

Cyanotoxins and Other Bioactive Compounds from the Pasteur Cultures of Cyanobacteria (PCC)
In tribute to the bicentenary of the birth of Louis Pasteur, this report focuses on cyanotoxins, other natural products and bioactive compounds of cyanobacteria, a phylum of Gram-negative bacteria capable of carrying out oxygenic photosynthesis.
