Contributions on Lindane Degradation by Microcystis aeruginosa PCC 7806
Water, 2022 Cyanobacteria are able to tolerate, and even metabolize, moderate doses of organochlorine pesticides, such as lindane (γ-hexachlorocyclohexane), one of the most persistent and widely used in recent decades. Previous work showed that Microcystis aeruginosa PCC 7806 degrades lindane and that, in the presence of the pesticide, microcystin synthesis is ...

Plasma Processes and Polymers, Volume 23, Issue 3, March 2026.Water contaminated with live fish parasite Ichthyophthirius multifiliis was plasma‐treated and added to tanks with healthy fish. After 6 days, no infection was detected in fish receiving treated water. Plasma treatment effectively prevented disease development, highlighting its promising potential as an environmentally friendly water sanitation ...

Response of Daphnia's antioxidant system to spatial heterogeneity in Cyanobacteria concentrations in a lowland reservoir. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Many species and clones of Daphnia inhabit ecosystems with permanent algal blooms, and they can develop tolerance to cyanobacterial toxins. In the current study, we examined the spatial differences in the response of Daphnia longispina to the toxic ...
