Characterization of Aerosols Containing Microcystin [PDF]
Marine Drugs, 2007 Toxic blooms of cyanobacteria are ubiquitous in both freshwater and brackishwater sources throughout the world. One class of cyanobacterial toxins, calledmicrocystins, is cyclic peptides. In addition to ingestion and dermal, inhalation is a likelyroute of human exposure.

mLife, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 164-179, April 2026.Abstract Mycosporine‐like amino acids (MAAs) are natural sunscreens synthesized by a wide range of organisms. Although the induction of MAA production by ultraviolet radiation is well established, the signaling pathways involved and specific functions of MAAs under other stress conditions remain poorly understood.

Persistence of Microcystin in Three Agricultural Ponds in Georgia, USA
ToxinsCyanobacteria and their toxins can have multiple effects on agricultural productivity and water bodies. Cyanotoxins can be transported to nearby crops and fields during irrigation and may pose a risk to animal health through water sources.

Statewide Intensification of Harmful Algal Blooms Across California Lakes and Reservoirs
GeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Monitoring cyanobacteria is crucial for assessing water quality, safeguarding public health, and understanding ecosystem dynamics impacted by harmful algal blooms. This study explores the potential of satellite remote sensing (SRS) to assess risks of cyanotoxin exposure in California's recreational waters from 2002 to 2011 and 2016 to 2023 ...

Variations in the Microcystin Content of Different Fish Species Collected from a Eutrophic Lake
Toxins, 2013 Microcystins produced from cyanobacteria can accumulate in fish tissues. Liquid chromatography coupled with tandem quadrupole mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is an attractive alternative to immunoassays for the determination of low concentrations of ...

Microcystin mcyA and mcyE Gene Abundances Are Not Appropriate Indicators of Microcystin Concentrations in Lakes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) are a primary source of water quality degradation in eutrophic lakes. The occurrence of cyanoHABs is ubiquitous and expected to increase with current climate and land use change scenarios.

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.This review elucidates the molecular mechanisms of algicidal bacteria, highlighting critical behaviours like chemotaxis, quorum sensing and extracellular vesicle release. It details how these actions disrupt algal cellular integrity, photosynthesis and calcium homeostasis, providing a theoretical foundation for controlling harmful algal blooms ...

Toxins, 2013 Microcystins, which are cyclic heptapeptides produced by some cyanobacterial species from algal blooms, strongly inhibit serine/threonine protein phosphatase and are known as hepatotoxins.
