Biosensors for Biotoxins Detection and Monitoring
Advanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 6, June 2026.This review examines state‐of‐the‐art biosensing platforms for biotoxin detection, including antibody‐, aptamer‐, CRISPR‐, nanopore‐, whole cells‐ and MIP‐based sensors. It highlights advances in ultra‐sensitive detection, real‐matrix validation in food and water, and multiplexed analysis, and discusses how the integration with machine learning ...

First report of microcystins in Taiwan [PDF]
Toxicon, 1998 This is the first report on microcystins from Microcystis aeruginosa Kützing in Taiwan. A total of nine strains of cyanobacteria have been isolated from eutrophic aquaculture ponds and water reservoirs. By mouse toxicity assay, six of the nine strains had LD100 in the range of 25-100 mg per kg mouse for dried bacterial mass. Microcystin-LR and -RR were

Frontiers in Environmental ScienceToxic cyanobacterial species occur in aquatic ecosystems when favourable environmental conditions prevail. These bacteria can produce natural hepatotoxic metabolites called microcystins that can affect the quality of water. Human exposure to microcystins

A Mini-Review on Detection Methods of Microcystins
Toxins, 2020 Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (CyanoHABs) produce microcystins (MCs) which are associated with animal and human hepatotoxicity. Over 270 variants of MC exist. MCs have been continually studied due of their toxic consequences.

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.ABSTRACT Aquaculture has overtaken capture fisheries as the main source of aquatic animal protein, marking a critical step in global food security. Yet, rapid intensification faces major challenges, including disease outbreaks, environmental degradation, and dependence on wild‐caught fish for feed.

Adsorption of microcystins by carbon nanotubes [PDF]
Chemosphere, 2006 The production of cyanobacterial toxins microcystins (MCs) by cyanobacterial bloom which may promote the growth of tumor in human liver is a growing environmental problem worldwide. In this paper, the adsorption of MC-RR and LR, which were extracted from cyanobacterial cells in Dianchi Lake in China, by carbon nanotubes (CNTs), wood-based activated ...

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2009 Blooms of the cyanobacterium Trichodesmium occur in massive colored patches over large areas of tropical and subtropical oceans. Recently, the interest in such events has increased given their role in major nitrogen and carbon dioxide oceanic fluxes ...

A Mini Review on Microcystins and Bacterial Degradation
Toxins, 2020 Microcystins (MCs) classified as hepatotoxic and carcinogenic are the most commonly reported cyanobacterial toxins found in the environment. Microcystis sp.
