Lethal intoxications of animals dwelling in aquatic habitats are recurrently observed with blooms of cyanobacteria. The latter produces two types of toxins : cytotoxins & biotoxins and a few antibiotics (allelopaths) such as acutiphycins, indolcarbazoles,

Toxicity and uptake mechanism of cylindrospermopsin and lophyrotomin in primary rat hepatocytes
The toxicities and uptake mechanisms of two hepatotoxins, namely cylindrospermopsin and lophyrotomin, were investigated on primary rat hepatocytes by using microcystin-LR (a well-known hepatotoxin produced by cyanobacteria) as a comparison.

The response of aquatic heterotrophic bacteria to microcystins exposure [PDF]
Microcystins (MCs) are the class of hepatotoxins most commonly produced by cyanobacteria. These are found in aquatic ecosystems where they coexist with other microorganisms such as heterotrophic bacteria, which have a key role in biogeochemical processes,

A polyphasic study of four Stigonematales cyanobacteria from tropical Australia (Queensland) revealed production of the hepatotoxins microcystins (MC-LR, MC-LA, MC-LF, MC-FR and demethyl-MC-LR) by Fischerella sp.

Toxin Release from Microcystis Aeruginosa after Chemical Treatment
Cyanobacterial (blue-green algal) blooms in agricultural dugouts and eutrophic lakes or reservoirs are common across the Canadian prairies. These blooms have caused livestock and wildlife poisonings that have been attributed to neurotoxins and/or ...

Fertilizers Effect Blue Green Algae and increasing their Toxins
Urban activities add pollutants to the environment, and increase Phosphorous [P], Nitrogen [N], Sulfate [S] and Iron [Fe], these pollutants in Aquatic environment can cause Eutrophication of Blue green algae (BGA), which they are an auto nutrition ...

Removal of cyanobacteria toxins in water treatment processes:Laboratory and pilotscale experiments
The effectiveness of various drinking water treatment processes has been tested in laboratory and pilot scale experiments using neurotoxic and hepatotoxic cyanobacterial blooms and laboratory‐grown algal cultures as test material.

A study of episodic events in the Baltic Sea - combined in situ and satellite observations
A project was developed concerning the operational system of surveillanceand the recording of episodic events in the Baltic Sea.In situ information was to be combined with multi-sensory satelliteimagery to determine the extent of algal blooms, to track ...

Studies on the immunosuppressive effects and detection of naturally-occuring toxins [PDF]
Episodes of toxin-producing phytoplankton occur worldwide, causing both animal and human fatalities. Toxicity occurs through consumption of phycotoxins, including azaspiracid, which accumulate in filter-feeding shellfish. Microcystins are hepatotoxins,
