Determining the Effects of the Coagulant, Aluminum Sulfate, on the Adsorption of Microcystin-LR on Powdered Activated Carbon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Based on climate change projections, the occurrence and intensity of cyanobacterial blooms is expected to increase; also it is more likely that these blooms will produce multiple cyanotoxins in drinking water supplies.

Taxonomic diversity and toxicological assessment of Cyanobacteria in Moroccan inland waters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Research on the ecology, biodiversity and toxicology of cyanobacteria in Moroccan inland waters has been carried out since 1994. The results demonstrate the existence of several taxa of cyanobacteria. Most of them are toxic, bloom‑forming species present

A laboratory study on risk assessment of microcystin-RR in cropland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The persistence time and risk of microcystin-RR (MC-RR) in cropland via irrigation were investigated under laboratory conditions. In order to evaluate the efficiency of the potential adsorption and biodegradation of MC-RR in cropland and the persistence ...

Optimization and Modeling of Microcystin-LR Degradation by TiO2 Photocatalyst Using Response Surface Methodology

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Health and Sustainable Development, 2020
Introduction: Microcystin-leucine arginine (MC-LR) is a toxin with harmful effects on the liver, kidney, heart, and gastrointestinal tract. So, effective removal of MC-LR from water resources is of great importance.
