Further characterization of glycine-containing microcystins from the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Microcystins are hepatotoxic cyclic peptides produced by several cyanobacterial genera worldwide. In 2008, our research group identified eight new glycine-containing microcystin congeners in two hydro-terrestrial mat samples from the McMurdo Dry Valleys ...

Measurement of Microcystin and Nodularin Activity in Human Urine by Immunocapture-Protein Phosphatase 2A Assay

open access: yesToxins, 2019
Microcystins (MC) and nodularin (NOD) are toxins released by cyanobacteria during harmful algal blooms. They are potent inhibitors of protein phosphatases 1 and 2A (PP1 and PP2A) and cause a variety of adverse symptoms in humans and animals if ingested ...

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

open access: yesEnvironmental 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.

Genetic diversity and microcystin production by Anabaena in the Gulf of Finland, Baltic Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Syanobakteerit (sinilevät) ovat olleet Itämeressä koko nykymuotoisen Itämeren ajan, sillä paleolimnologiset todisteet niiden olemassaolosta Itämeren alueella ovat noin 7000 vuoden takaa.

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

open access: yesGeoHealth, 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

open access: yesAquaculture 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.

Variable Cyanobacterial Toxin and Metabolite  Profiles across Six Eutrophic Lakes of Differing  Physiochemical Characteristics

open access: yesToxins, 2017
Future sustainability of freshwater resources is seriously threatened due to the presence of harmful cyanobacterial blooms, and yet, the number, extent, and distribution of most cyanobacterial toxins—including “emerging” toxins and other bioactive ...

CyanoNews (Vol. 6, No. 3, December 1990) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
CyanoNews was a newsletter that served the cyanobacteriological community from 1985 to 2003, with content provided by readers (sort of a blog before there were blogs). The newsletter reported new findings from the lab, summaries of recent meetings (often

Molecular detection of hepatotoxic cyanobacteria in inland water bodies of the Marmara Region, Turkey

open access: yesAdvances in Oceanography and Limnology, 2017
Blooms of cyanobacteria are an increasingly frequent phenomenon in freshwater ecosystems worldwide as a result of eutrophication. Many species can produce hepatotoxins that cause severe health hazards to humans.
