Occurrence and Diversity of Cyanotoxins and Retinoid Compounds in Antarctic Microbial Mats: Evidence From James Ross Island. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepOccurrence and distribution of cyanotoxins and retinoids across different Antarctic ecosystems at James Ross Island. These ecosystems harbour diverse microbial communities dominated by autotrophic cyanobacteria and algae, which can produce hazardous compounds for animals.

Nutrient-driven regulation of saxitoxin gene expression and toxin production in Raphidiopsis raciborskii (Cyanobacteria). [PDF]
J PhycolAbstract Raphidiopsis raciborskii is a diazotrophic cyanobacterium, globally distributed in aquatic environments and known for forming toxic blooms, thereby affecting ecosystem services. South American strains are producers of saxitoxins, potent neurotoxins harmful to humans and animals.

Statewide Intensification of Harmful Algal Blooms Across California Lakes and Reservoirs. [PDF]
GeohealthAbstract Monitoring cyanobacteria is crucial for assessing water quality, safeguarding public health, and understanding ecosystem dynamics impacted by harmful algal blooms. This study explores the potential of satellite remote sensing (SRS) to assess risks of cyanotoxin exposure in California's recreational waters from 2002 to 2011 and 2016 to 2023 ...

Cyanotoxins Occurrence in Portugal: A New Report on Their Recent Multiplication
Toxins, 2020 Historical reports show that in Portugal, cyanotoxins reports were mainly in the Center (cylindrospermopsins) and South (cylindrospermopsins, saxitoxins) regions of the country apart from the well distributed microcystins.

Microcystin Prevalence throughout Lentic Waterbodies in Coastal Southern California. [PDF]
, 2017 Toxin producing cyanobacterial blooms have increased globally in recent decades in both frequency and intensity. Despite the recognition of this growing risk, the extent and magnitude of cyanobacterial blooms and cyanotoxin prevalence is poorly ...

A Stereocontrolled Synthesis of (+)-Saxitoxin [PDF]
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2011 A concise stereoselective total synthesis of (+)-saxitoxin is described. A silver(I)-initiated hydroamination cascade constructs the bicyclic guanidinium ion core from a alkynyl bisguanidine. This sequence creates two C-N bonds, one C-O bond, and three rings and forms a single stereoisomer in a single synthetic transformation.
