Cyanobacteria toxins (cyanotoxins) include cytotoxins and biotoxins with biotoxins being responsible for acute lethal, acute, chronic and sub-chronic poisonings of wild/domestic animals and humans. The biotoxins include the neurotoxins; ana-toxin-a, anatoxin-a(s) and saxitoxins plus the hepato...
Health Effects of Toxin-Producing Cyanobacteria: "The CyanoHABs" Increasingly, harmful algal blooms (HABs) are being reported worldwide due to several factors, primarily eutrophication, climate change and more scientific...

Well-documented human and animal health effects related to blooms and the associated cyanotoxins have led health and water authorities in this state to recognize doi:10.1002/(SICI)1522-7278(199902)14:1<203::AID-TOX26>3.0.CO;cyanobacteria...
Some species of cyanobacteria produce toxins that affect animals and humans. People may be exposed to cyanobacterial toxins by drinking or bathing in contaminated water. The most frequent and serious health effects are caused by drinking water containing the toxins (cyanobacteria) or by ingestion ...
Cyanobacterial lipopolysaccharide/s (LPS) are frequently cited in the cyanobacteria literature as toxins responsible for a variety of heath effects in humans, from skin rashes to gastrointestinal, respiratory and allergic reactions. The attribution of toxic properties to cyanobacterial LPS dates from the ...

The toxic effects of the microcystins have been attributed to the inhibition of protein phosphatases. This inhibition causes collapse of the cytoskeleton and interferes with a general signal transduction mechanism in cells. The presence of toxic cyanobacteria in surface water has been documented in all...
