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 …

Global warming and human-induced eutrophication drive the occurrence of various
cyanotoxins in aquatic environments. These metabolites reveal diversified mechanisms of …

Cyanotoxins have gained global public interest due to their potential to bioaccumulate in
food, which threatens human health. Bloom formation is usually enhanced under …

Cyanobacteria are photosynthetic bacteria inhabiting water surface. They can increase to
form a mass large enough, termed as cyanobacterial bloom. Cyanobacterial blooms can …

Excessive point and non-point nutrient loadings accompanied with elevated temperatures
have increased the prevalence of harmful algal bloom (HAB). HABs pose significant …

Microcystins (MCs) are hepatotoxic and potentially carcinogenic cyanotoxins. They exhibit
high structural variability, with nearly 250 variants described to date. This variability can …

Water bloom-forming cyanobacteria have a severe impact on freshwater quality. Although
some cyanobacterial toxins such as microcystins have been studied extensively, other toxins …

The objectives of this study are to monitor the physicochemical properties of two freshwater
lakes with different chemical characteristics and trophic status over a year (2019) and …

Materials and methods A literature review was conducted to investigate the occurrence and
blooms of alien cyanobacteria in various water bodies in Europe, as well as environmental …

This paper presents the first report of cyanobacteria and cyanotoxins from the South
Caucasus region, in particular from Lake Yerevan (Armenia). Microcystis, Dolichospermum …
