Cyanobacteria were present on the earth 3.5 billion years ago; since then they have
colonized almost all terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. They produce a high number of …

Animal studies provide strong evidence of positive associations between microcystins (MCs)
exposure and reproductive toxicity, representing a threat to human reproductive health and …

Since the manufacture and use of nanoparticles are increasing, humans are more likely to
be exposed occupationally or via consumer products and the environment. However, so far …

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

Cyanobacteria or blue-green algae are among the pioneer organisms of planet Earth. They
developed an efficient photosynthetic capacity and played a significant role in the evolution …

The aim of this study was to purify and identify antioxidant peptides from watermelon seed
protein hydrolysates (WSPHs-I: Mw< 1 kDa) and further evaluate their cytoprotective effects …

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

The occurrence of cyanobacterial blooms has increased significantly in many regions of the
world in the last century due to water eutrophication. These blooms are hazardous to …

Increased demand has pushed extensive aquaculture towards intensively operated
production systems, commonly resulting in eutrophic conditions and cyanobacterial blooms …

Mass developments of cyanobacteria (“blue‐green algae”) in lakes and brackish waters
have repeatedly led to serious concerns due to their frequent association with toxins. Among …
