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 …

Microcystins (MCs) are common cyanotoxins produced by harmful cyanobacterial blooms
(HCBs) and severely threaten human and ecosystems health. Biodegradation is an efficient …

The monocyclic heptapeptides microcystins (MCs), are a group of hepatotoxins, produced
worldwide by some bloom-forming cyanobacterial species/strains both in marine and …

Abstract Microcystin-leucine-arginine (MC-LR), a cyclic potentially carcinogenic hepatotoxin,
occurs frequently in aquatic habitats worldwide and seriously threatens ecosystem and …

Microcystins (MCs) classified as hepatotoxic and carcinogenic are the most commonly
reported cyanobacterial toxins found in the environment. Microcystis sp. possessing a series …

Cyanobacterial mass occurrences (water blooms) cause ecological, economic and health
problems worldwide. Still, little is known about heterotrophic bacteria associated with …

Microcystins are secondary metabolites produced by cyanobacteria that act as hepatotoxins
in higher organisms. These toxins can be altered through abiotic processes, such as …

Bloom-forming cyanobacteria Planktothrix agardhii and P. rubescens are regularly involved
in the occurrence of cyanotoxin in lakes and reservoirs. Besides microcystins (MCs), which …
