Newly isolated strains of potentially microcystin-producing cyanobacteria in potable water: case study of Mawoni village, South Africa

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science
Toxic 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 Microcystins and Bacterial Degradation

open access: yesToxins, 2020
Microcystins (MCs) classified as hepatotoxic and carcinogenic are the most commonly reported cyanobacterial toxins found in the environment. Microcystis sp.

Combined and single effects of pesticide carbaryl and toxic Microcystis aeruginosa on the life history of Daphnia pulicaria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The combined influence of a pesticide (carbaryl) and a cyanotoxin (microcystin LR) on the life history of Daphnia pulicaria was investigated. At the beginning of the experiments animals were pulse exposed to carbaryl for 24 h and microcystins were ...

Algal Blooms in Lakes Increase After Wildfire Smoke Events in the Contiguous United States

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 1, March 2026.
Temporary pulses of surface chlorophyll‐a are identified following wildfire smoke events in lakes and reservoirs across the United States. ABSTRACT Area burned by wildfire has increased in the contiguous United States and in many places globally in recent years, impacting communities and ecosystems nearby and even far downwind of fires. We examined the

Screening the toxicity and toxin content of blooms of the cyanobacterium Trichodesmium erythraeum (Ehrenberg) in northeast Brasil

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Summertime methane and carbon dioxide emission rates and associated variables from a national‐scale survey of 146 reservoirs in the United States

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract Reservoirs are globally important sources of greenhouse gases, but the magnitude of their emissions is highly uncertain. Here, we present data for 146 reservoirs from two surveys of reservoir methane and carbon dioxide emissions, one at the regional scale in the midwestern United States and one at the national scale in the United States, plus ...

Microcystins with Modified Adda5-Residues from a Heterologous Microcystin Expression System

open access: yesACS Omega
Microcystins are hepatotoxic cyclic heptapeptides produced by some cyanobacterial species and usually contain the unusual β-amino acid 3S-amino-9S-methoxy-2S,6,8S-trimethyl-10-phenyl-4E,6E-decadienoic acid (Adda) at position-5. The full microcystin gene cluster from Microcystis aeruginosa PCC 7806 has been expressed in Escherichia coli.

Gastrointestinal toxicity induced by microcystins

open access: yesWorld Journal of Clinical Cases, 2018
Microcystins (MCs) are produced by certain bloom-forming cyanobacteria that can induce toxicity in various organs, including renal toxicity, reproductive toxicity, cardiotoxicity, and immunosuppressive effects. It has been a significant global environmental issue due to its harm to the aquatic environment and human health.
