Fast, rugged and sensitive ultra high pressure liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method for analysis of cyanotoxins in raw water and drinking water—First findings of anatoxins, cylindrospermopsins and microcystin variants in Swedish source waters and infiltration ponds [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Chromatography A, 2016
Freshwater blooms of cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) in source waters are generally composed of several different strains with the capability to produce a variety of toxins.

Microcystins and cylindrospermopsins molecular markers for the detection of toxic cyanobacteria: a case study of northeastern Brazilian reservoirs

open access: yes, 2015
The presence of potentially toxic cyanobacteria in 10 northeastern Brazilian reservoirs used for public water supply was evaluated with molecular markers specific to genes of microcystins (MC) and cylindrospermopsins (CYN).

Identification of 7-Deoxy-desulfo-argino-cylindrospermopsin, the Missing Piece in Cylindrospermopsin Biosynthesis

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2022
Cylindrospermopsin, a major cyanotoxin, is produced by freshwater cyanobacteria. Its biosynthesis starts from arginine and glycine and involves five polyketide synthases and several tailoring enzymes. We report the identification of 7-deoxy-desulfo-argino-cylindrospermopsin in several cylindrospermopsin-producing cyanobacteria using mass spectrometry ...

Biosynthesis of Cylindrospermopsin

The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 1999
Studies on the biosynthesis of cylindrospermopsin (1), a potent hepatotoxin associated with the cyanobacterium Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii, indicate that 1 is an acetogenin with guanidinoacetic acid serving as the starter unit of the polyketide chain. Feeding experiments show that C14 and C15 of 1 are derived from C1 and C2 of glycine, respectively,

Cyanobacterial (blue-green algal) toxins in water supplies: Cylindrospermopsins

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, 2006
The toxic alkaloid cylindrospermopsin is produced by a range of cyanobacterial species worldwide. It was first identified in the species Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii from tropical waters, and has since been isolated from four other genera in locations ...

Investigating the production and release of cylindrospermopsin and deoxy-cylindrospermopsin by Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii over a natural growth cycle

Harmful Algae, 2014
Many harmful cyanobacterial genera have strains that can produce potent toxins and other biologically active compounds that present a risk to the health of humans and other animals that consume or contact contaminated water. Cylindrospermopsins (CYNs) are produced by several species of cyanobacteria including Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii (Woloszynska)

Characterization of cylindrospermopsin chlorination

Science of The Total Environment, 2010
In temperate countries, the occurrence of cyanobacterial blooms threatens drinking water resources. Consequently, cyanotoxins are increasingly considered in water treatment, and their reactions with chlorine used to disinfect drinking water are particularly investigated.
