Underway measurement of cyanobacterial microcystins using a surface plasmon resonance sensor on an autonomous underwater vehicle

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 22, Issue 9, Page 681-699, September 2024.
Abstract Freshwater cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (CHABs) are a well‐known global public health threat. Monitoring and early detection of CHAB toxins are currently accomplished using labor‐intensive sampling techniques and subsequent shore‐based analyses, with results typically reported 24–48 h after sample collection.

The chemical and microbiological safety of emerging alternative protein sources and derived analogues: A review

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 23, Issue 4, July 2024.
Abstract Climate change and changing consumer demand are the main factors driving the protein transition. This shift toward more sustainable protein sources as alternatives to animal proteins is also reflected in the rapid upscaling of meat and dairy food analogues.

Development of a carboxymethyl chitosan functionalized slide for small molecule detection using oblique-incidence reflectivity difference technology. [PDF]

Label-free optical biosensors have become powerful tools in the study of biomolecular interactions without the need for labels. High throughput and low detection limit are desirable for rapid and accurate biomolecule detection.

Bacterial community and cyanotoxin gene distribution of the Winam Gulf, Lake Victoria, Kenya

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2024.
This work identified cyanobacterial community and cyanotoxin gene distribution in the Winam Gulf, Lake Victoria, Kenya. Cyanobacterial communities clustered in line with different areas of the Gulf, while cyanotoxin gene concentrations varied between the eastern and western regions.

Satellite Remote Sensing: A Tool to Support Harmful Algal Bloom Monitoring and Recreational Health Advisories in a California Reservoir

GeoHealth, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2024.
Abstract Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) can harm people, animals, and affect consumptive and recreational use of inland waters. Monitoring cyanoHABs is often limited. However, chlorophyll‐a (chl‐a) is a common water quality metric and has been shown to have a relationship with cyanobacteria. The World Health Organization (WHO) recently

Influence of Environmental Factors on the Dynamics and Toxicology of Microcystis and Anabaena in Eutrophic Ponds

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Blooms of Microcystis are common in fish ponds in Bangladesh which vary distinctly with season to season. A study on the seasonal changes of Microcystis and Anabaena was carried out over a period of 12 months from March 2021 to February 2022 in two rural fish ponds to see the effect of environmental factors on the seasonal dynamics of these two species.

On the chemistry, toxicology and genetics of the cyanobacterial toxins, microcystin, nodularin, saxitoxin and cylindrospermopsin [PDF]

, 2010
The cyanobacteria or “blue-green algae”, as they are commonly termed, comprise a diverse group of oxygenic photosynthetic bacteria that inhabit a wide range of aquatic and terrestrial environments, and display incredible morphological diversity.
