Assessment of cyanoprokaryote blooms and of cyanotoxins in Bulgaria in a 15-years period (2000-2015)

open access: yesAdvances in Oceanography and Limnology, 2017
The scientific and public awareness of hazardous photosynthetic prokaryotes (cyanobacteria/cyanoprokaryotes) and especially the contamination of drinking-water reservoirs with cyanotoxins is world-wide increasing.

Bacterial Production of Saxitoxin

open access: yesAgricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1988
A bacterium was isolated from the homogenate of Protogonyaulax tamarensis cells cultured in T1 medium containing antibiotics. The culture broth after centrifugation, to remove the cells, and the bacterial cells contained a toxin that could kill mice with signs similar to those of poisoning by paralytic shellfish toxins or tetrodotoxin. The toxin in the

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 ...

Development and field assessment of a quantitative PCR for the detection and enumeration of the noxious bloom-former Anabaena planktonica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Anabaena planktonica is a harmful, bloom-forming freshwater cyanobacterium, which has arrived recently in New Zealand. In the short time since its incursion (

Statistical Inferences Applying Non-Parametric Data on Cyanobacterial Investigations: Contributions to Water Quality and New Trends under Global Changes on Portuguese Freshwater Ecosystems

open access: yesToxins, 2022
Cyanobacteria are a bloom-forming ancient group of photosynthetic prokaryotes. A rise in temperature is a major contributor to its massive proliferation, namely on freshwater ecosystems, with social and economic impacts. Thus, reliable and cost-effective

Visible Fluorescence Chemosensor for Saxitoxin [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2007
Absorption spectra of a number of shellfish extracts have been obtained and reveal prominent absorptions in all samples at 210 and 260 nm and at 325 nm in some of them. These absorptions preclude the use of chromophores with similar absorptions in testing of shellfish samples for paralytic shellfish toxins.
