Chitosan-cellulose Composite Materials: Preparation, Characterization and Application for Removal of Microcystin [PDF]
, 2013 We developed a simple and one-step method to prepare biocompatible composites from cellulose (CEL) and chitosan (CS). [BMIm+Cl−], an ionic liquid (IL), was used as a green solvent to dissolve and prepare the [CEL + CS] composites. Since majority (\u3e88%)

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2015 Background Toxic cyanobacterial blooms are recurrent in Patos Lagoon, in southern Brazil. Among cyanotoxins, [D-Leu1] microcystin-LR is the predominant variant whose natural cycle involves water and sediment compartments. This study aimed to identify and

Multimedia distributions, bioaccumulation, and trophic transfer of microcystins in the Geum River Estuary, Korea: Application of compound-specific isotope analysis of amino acids [PDF]
, 2019 To determine distributions, bioaccumulation, and trophic transfer of freshwater cyanobacterial toxins such as microcystins (MCs), surface water, suspended solids, sediments, and coastal organisms were collected from seven stations in inner and outer ...

Biomarkers of prolonged exposure to microcystin-LR in mice [PDF]
Toxicon, 2013 The effects of prolonged exposure to microcystins (MCs) on health are not yet sufficiently understood and this type of poisoning is often undiagnosed. Even though chronic exposure has been linked with liver cancer and alterations have been described in liver damage marker enzymes in exposed populations, there are not profile parameters that indicate ...

Oxidative stress biomarkers in Clarias gariepinus (Burchel, 1822) exposed to Microcystin-LR
Beni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, 2017 Stress levels inflicted by microcystin-LR extracted from Microcystis aeruginosa were assessed by estimating the effects on the oxidative stress biomarkers in the liver, muscle and gill tissues of Clarias gariepinus. Microcystin-LR was administered to the

Hepatotoxin microcystin-LR extraction optimization [PDF]
, 2009 Several cyanobacterial genera produce toxic secondary metabolites, the most well-known of which are the hepatotoxic microcystins (MCYSTs). Microcystin analyses in drinking water are a requirement of the Health Ministry (Regulation 518/2004) in Brazil ...

Microcystin-LR Removal from Water via Enzymatic Linearization and Ultrafiltration
Toxins, 2022 Microcystin-LR (MC-LR) is a toxin produced by cyanobacteria that can bloom in freshwater supplies. This study describes a new strategy for remediation of MC-LR that combines linearization of the toxin using microcystinase A, MlrA, enzyme with rejection ...
