Cylindrospermopsin: A Decade of Progress on Bioaccumulation Research [PDF]

Marine Drugs, 2010
Cylindrospermopsin (CYN) is rapidly being recognised as one of the most globally important of the freshwater algal toxins. The ever-expanding distribution of CYN producers into temperate zones is heightening concern that this toxin will represent serious human, as well as environmental, health risks across many countries.

Toxic potential of cyanobacteria in oligo-mesotrophic lakes: the case of Lake Garda (Italy) [PDF]

, 2012
Some cyanobacteria genera are able to produce potent toxins, including hepatotoxins (microcystins, nodularins), neurotoxins (saxitoxins, anatoxins, BMAA), and cytotoxins (cylindrospermopsins).

Simultaneous Determination of Multiclass Cyanotoxins in Aquatic Products, Vegetables and Algal Dietary Supplements Using Dispersive Solid-Phase Extraction (dSPE)-UHPLC-MS/MS

Toxins
Cyanotoxins, prevalent in eutrophic aquatic ecosystems, pose significant health risks via contaminated food, yet analytical methods for detecting multiple toxin classes in foodstuffs remain limited.

A comparative study of the metabolic profiles of common nuisance cyanobacteria in southern perialpine lakes

Advances in Oceanography and Limnology, 2017
This work allowed the comparison of the metabolic profiles of the most important cyanobacteria species in southern perialpine lakes, namely Aphanizomenon flos-aquae, Dolichospermum lemmermannii, Microcystis aeruginosa, Planktothrix rubescens, and ...

Statewide Intensification of Harmful Algal Blooms Across California Lakes and Reservoirs

GeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Monitoring cyanobacteria is crucial for assessing water quality, safeguarding public health, and understanding ecosystem dynamics impacted by harmful algal blooms. This study explores the potential of satellite remote sensing (SRS) to assess risks of cyanotoxin exposure in California's recreational waters from 2002 to 2011 and 2016 to 2023 ...

Occurrence and Diversity of Cyanotoxins and Retinoid Compounds in Antarctic Microbial Mats: Evidence From James Ross Island

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
Occurrence and distribution of cyanotoxins and retinoids across different Antarctic ecosystems at James Ross Island. These ecosystems harbour diverse microbial communities dominated by autotrophic cyanobacteria and algae, which can produce hazardous compounds for animals.

Examining Short Temporal Changes in Intertidal Macroalgal Microbiomes at 'Ewa Beach, O'Ahu, Hawai'i: Some Hosts Varied While Others Remained Stable

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
We examined microbiome variability in seven macroalgal species over 5 days at an intertidal bench in 'Ewa Beach, O'ahu, Hawai'i. Microbial communities of some red and brown algae fluctuated, whilst green algae remained stable. Temporal patterns varied by species and potentially by differences in intertidal positioning and exposure to environmental ...

Risk assessment of the production of seaweed in the Netherlands; food safety and nature

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Seaweed is seen as an important source of alternative proteins for a sustainable food system and food security. The cultivation of seaweed is therefore encouraged by the European Union (EU) and also by the Dutch government.In the Netherlands, seaweed is farmed on small scale in the Southwest Delta, the Wadden Sea and the North Sea. Despite the

Algal Blooms in Lakes Increase After Wildfire Smoke Events in the Contiguous United States

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 1, March 2026.
Temporary pulses of surface chlorophyll‐a are identified following wildfire smoke events in lakes and reservoirs across the United States. ABSTRACT Area burned by wildfire has increased in the contiguous United States and in many places globally in recent years, impacting communities and ecosystems nearby and even far downwind of fires. We examined the

Characterization of the Gene Cluster Responsible for Cylindrospermopsin Biosynthesis [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2008
ABSTRACTToxic cyanobacterial blooms cause economic losses and pose significant public health threats on a global scale. Characterization of the gene cluster for the biosynthesis of the cyanobacterial toxin cylindrospermopsin (cyr) inCylindrospermopsis raciborskiiAWT205 is described, and the complete biosynthetic pathway is proposed.
