ABSTRACT The increasing demand for freshwater, in combination with climate change and pollution, compromises the quality and quantity of water resources. These pressures have intensified cyanobacterial blooms, including toxic events that threaten human health and aquatic ecosystems. This study complements the objectives of the Water Framework Directive

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.

Rapid purification of the peptide toxins microcystin-LR and nodularin [PDF]
An isolation procedure was developed to provide within one day microcystin-LR, a cyclic heptapeptide toxin from Microcystis aeruginosa PCC 7806. After ODS (octadecylsilyl) solid phase extraction, the crude toxin fraction was chromatographed using a strong anion exchange column. The toxin was eluted with 0.02 M ammonium bicarbonate.

Abstract Cyanobacteria blooms are a leading threat to water quality globally. Despite this, the timing and frequency of toxin production associated with harmful blooms are not well understood. Here we explore cyanobacteria bloom dynamics and cyanotoxin production in two heavily instrumented shallow, eutrophic bays of Lake Champlain through the lens of ...

Development and field assessment of a quantitative PCR for the detection and enumeration of the noxious bloom-former Anabaena planktonica [PDF]
Anabaena planktonica is a harmful, bloom-forming freshwater cyanobacterium, which has arrived recently in New Zealand. In the short time since its incursion (
