Non-competitive ELISA with broad specificity for microcystins and nodularins
Simple and cost-effective methods with sufficient sensitivities for preliminary screening of cyanobacterial toxins are in high demand for assessing water quality and safety.

In recent years, the consumption of blue-green algae (BGA) dietary supplements is increasing because of their health benefits. However, cyanobacteria can produce cyanotoxins, which present serious health risks.

Evolution and detection of cyanobacterial hepatotoxin synthetase genes [PDF]
Mass occurrences (blooms) of cyanobacteria are common in aquatic environments worldwide. These blooms are often toxic, due to the presence of hepatotoxins or neurotoxins. The most common cyanobacterial toxins are hepatotoxins: microcystins and nodularins.

Incorporation of diazotrophically fixed nitrogen by juvenile fish in a coastal sea
Abstract Nitrogen‐fixing cyanobacterial blooms worldwide have been shown to support production in primary consumers such as zooplankton and benthic invertebrates, but there have been few estimates of how much of the cyanobacterial nitrogen ends up in secondary consumers, such as fish.

Cyanobacteria can form dense blooms under specific environmental conditions, and some species produce secondary metabolites known as cyanotoxins, which present significant risks to public health and the environment.

ABSTRACT The global increase in the frequency and intensity of cyanobacteria blooms has been widely attributed to changes in land‐use practices and climate variability, yet little is known of how toxicity has varied historically relative to cyanobacteria abundance.

Vegetables and fruits can potentially accumulate cyanotoxins after water contaminated with cyanobacteria is used for irrigation. We developed and validated an analytical method to quantify eight microcystin congeners (MCs) and nodularin (NOD) using ultra

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.

Natürliche Kombinatorik: Die evolutionäre Rekombination und Anpassung von drei cyanobakteriellen Biosynthese‐Genclustern führte zur Entstehung von Minutumamiden, einer neuen Familie von Peptid‐Polyketid‐Hybriden. Mittels retro‐evolutionärer Analyse gelang die Entdeckung des Nostopeptolids KVJ3, einem evolutionären Vorfahren, der die Biosynthese von ...

Natural combinatorics: Evolutionary mixing and matching of three cyanobacterial biosynthetic gene clusters resulted in the emergence of minutumamides, a novel family of peptide‐polyketide hybrids. Retro‐evolutionary analysis led to the discovery of nostopeptolide KVJ3, an evolutionary ancestor that links nostopeptolide and minutumamide biosynthesis and
