Characteristics of a Microcystin-Degrading Bacterium under Alkaline Environmental Conditions

Journal of Toxicology, 2009
The pH of the water associated with toxic blooms of cyanobacteria is typically in the alkaline range; however, previously only microcystin-degrading bacteria growing in neutral pH conditions have been isolated.

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

Journal 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.

The accumulation of the cyanobacterial toxin, microcystin, in cherry tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) and bush bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) plants [PDF]

, 2013
We aimed to develop a high-sensitivity method to detect microcystin toxins in fruit tissue and to determine if irrigation with water containing toxic cyanobacteria may result in accumulation of microcystin toxins in fruit tissue and affect fruit ...

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

, 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.
