Ultrasound-enhanced coagulation for Microcystis aeruginosa removal
Source water eutrophication has caused serious problems in drinking water supplies, with enhanced coagulation widely used to remove the resulting algae. This paper investigates the use of sonication to improve the removal by coagulation of Microcystis aeruginosa, a common species of toxic algae.

Effect of fluid motion on colony formation in Microcystis aeruginosa
Microcystis aeruginosa, generally occurring in large colonies under natural conditions, mainly exists as single cells in laboratory cultures. The mechanisms involved in colony formation in Microcystis aeruginosa and their roles in algal blooms remain ...

Hemagglutinating activity of Microcystis aeruginosa (Cyanobacterium).
Natural Microcystis aeruginosa specimens collected mainly from Suwa and Kasumigaura lakes were examined for both the hemagglutinating activity for mammalian erythrocytes and the toxicity in mice. Sixteen out of the 18 samples examined showed a hemagglutinating activity for rabbit erythrocytes, ten for rat and four for mouse erythrocytes. Ten strains in

Occurrence of Harmful Algal Blooms in Freshwater Sources of Mindu and Nyumba ya Mungu Dams, Tanzania
Harmful algal blooms (HABs) pose a significant threat to aquatic ecosystems and human health due to the production of toxins. The identification and quantification of these toxins are crucial for water quality management decisions.

Recreational exposure during algal bloom in carrasco beach, uruguay: A liver failure case report [PDF]
In January 2015, a 20-month-old child and her family took part in recreational activities at Carrasco and Malvín beaches (Montevideo, Uruguay). An intense harmful algae bloom (HAB) was developing along the coast at that time.
