Cyanobacteria represent a health hazard worldwide due to their production of a range of
highly potent toxins in diverse aquatic environments. While planktonic species have been …

Background Bloom-forming cyanobacteria occur globally in aquatic environments. They
produce diverse bioactive metabolites, some of which are known to be toxic. The most …

The cyanotoxin cylindrospermopsin (CYN) is produced by several species of cyanobacteria
and can be persistent in drinking waters supplies, which is of major concern to water …

Cylindrospermopsin, a hepatotoxin produced by cyanobacteria, has been unambiguously
detected in cyanobacteria collected from a recreational lake in the Wellington region of New …

The South African Hartbeespoort Dam is known for the occurrence of heavy Microcystis
blooms. Although a few other cyanobacterial genera have been described, no detailed study …

The presence of toxigenic cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) in drinking water reservoirs
poses a risk to human and animal health worldwide. Guidelines and health alert levels have …

Cyanobacterial blooms have increased in freshwater ecosystems worldwide in the last
century, mostly resulting from eutrophication and climate change. These blooms represent …

Benthic cyanobacteria are found globally in plethora of environments. Although they have
received less attention than their planktonic freshwater counterparts, it is now well …

This paper describes the vertical water column distribution of the cyanobacterial toxins
cylindrospermopsin and deoxycylindrospermopsin in a water body containing the …

A filamentous cyanobacterium isolated from the plankton of a eutrophic reservoir in
Queensland (Australia) was, based on morphological features, putatively identified as …
