Gold coated dual-resonance long-period fiber gratings (DR-LPFG) based aptasensor for cyanobacterial toxin detection

open access: yesSensing and Bio-Sensing Research, 2019
Here, we present the development of aptasensor for the label-free, stable, and sensitive detection of environmental toxin microcystin-LR (MC-LR). A thiolated aptamer used as a bio-receptor was covalently immobilized on dual-resonance long-period fiber ...

Safety evaluation of blue galdieria extract as a food additive

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The EFSA Panel on Food Additive and Flavourings (FAF Panel) provides a scientific opinion on the safety of blue galdieria extract as a food additive. Blue galdieria extract is an enzymatically treated C‐phycocyanin extract derived from the lysed biomass of the microalgae Galdieria sulphuraria.

Diversity of microcystin-producing genotypes in Brazilian strains of Microcystis (Cyanobacteria)

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology
Microcystis Kützing ex Lemmermann is among the genera of cyanobacteria often associated to toxic blooms with the release of microcystins. A gene cluster codes for microcystin synthetases, which are involved in the biosynthesis of this toxin.

Cellular transport of microcystin-LR in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) across the intestinal wall: possible involvement of multidrug resistance-associated proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We studied Abcc mediated-transport in middle and posterior intestine of the rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss. Luminal and serosal transport were evaluated in everted and non-everted intestinal sacs, respectively, incubated with 1-chloro-2,4 ...
