Removal of microcystin-LR from aqueous solutions using % burn-off activated carbon of waste wood material [PDF]
, 2014 The activated carbon (AC), prepared at different burn-off rates, showed a high uptake of methylene blue. At 93% burn-off, methylene blue uptake was 620 mg/g.

Insight Into the Molecular Mechanisms for Microcystin Biodegradation in Lake Erie and Lake Taihu
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 Microcystins are potent hepatotoxins that are frequently detected in fresh water lakes plagued by toxic cyanobacteria. Microbial biodegradation has been referred to as the most important avenue for removal of microcystin from aquatic environments.

Investigation of Microcystin Processing, Production and Export by Microcystis sp. [PDF]
, 2014 During this study, the effect of different processing methods on the microcystin quota (microcystins per cell) was investigated. Microcystins from two Microcystis strains and one Planktothrix strain were quantified using liquid chromatography-mass ...

Investigation of the toxicity of cyanobacterial peptides by chemical biology approaches [PDF]
, 2014 Global warming together with the extensive agriculture favours the uncontrolled growth of cyanobacteria, also called blue-green algae. Being one of the oldest life forms on our planet, they have reached evolutionary perfection over time.

Med Research, EarlyView.This review systematically compares the size‐dependent toxicity of microplastics and nanoplastics in the intestine, liver, kidney, lung, and brain. Particle size determines bioavailability, barrier penetration, and injury mechanisms. Because of their small size and high surface reactivity, NPs readily cross the intestinal epithelium and blood–brain ...
