Cyanobacteria are photoautotrophic organisms which occur in aquatic and terrestrial
environments. They have the potential to produce toxins which pose a threat to human and …

Cyanobacteria are ubiquitous microorganisms considered as important contributors to the
formation of Earth's atmosphere and nitrogen fixation. However, they are also frequently …

Cyanobacterial blooms occur when algal densities exceed baseline population
concentrations. Cyanobacteria can produce a large number of secondary metabolites …

In this review, the general background is provided on cyanobacteria, including morphology,
cell membrane structure, and their photosynthesis pathway. The presence of cyanobacteria …

The occurrence of harmful cyanobacterial blooms in surface waters is often accompanied by
the production of a variety of cyanotoxins. These toxins are designed to target in humans …

The cyanobacteria or “blue-green algae”, as they are commonly termed, comprise a diverse
group of oxygenic photosynthetic bacteria that inhabit a wide range of aquatic and terrestrial …

Cyanobacteria produce an unparalleled variety of toxins that can cause severe health
problems or even death in humans, and wild or domestic animals. In the last decade …

Blue‐green algae are found in lakes, ponds, rivers and brackish waters throughout the
world. In case of excessive growth such as bloom formation, these bacteria can produce …

Cyanobacteria are one of the most diverse groups of gram-negative photosynthetic
prokaryotes. Many of them are able to produce a wide range of toxic secondary metabolites …

This review focuses on the risk assessment associated with human exposure to cyanotoxins,
secondary metabolites of an ubiquitous group of photosynthetic procariota. Cyanobacteria …
