Hepatotoxic Cyanobacteria: A Review of the Biological Importance of Microcystins in Freshwater Environments
TL;DR: Cyanobacteria play vital roles in aquatic food webs, yet production, accumulation, and toxicity patterns of MCs within aquaticFood webs remain obscure.

Structure and biosynthesis of toxins from blue-green algae (cyanobacteria)
TL;DR: Nearly 30 new microcystins have been isolated in the laboratory from cyanobacteria species and their structures assigned, largely employing tandem FAB mass spectrometry (FABMS/CID/MS) and numerous analogs identified or synthesized allow the identification of important parameters in a structure-activity relationship study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cyanobacterial toxins: removal during drinking water treatment, and human risk assessment.
TL;DR: Chlorination, possibly micro-/ultrafiltration, but especially ozonation are the most effective in destroying cyanobacteria and in removing microcystins, however, these treatments may not be sufficient during bloom situations or when a high organic load is present, and toxin levels should therefore be monitored during the water treatment process.
