A Review of Solar and Visible Light Active TiO2 Photocatalysis for Treating Bacteria, Cyanotoxins and Contaminants of Emerging Concern
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the effectiveness of various visible light activated TiO2 photocatalysts for treating contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs), bacteria and cyanotoxins.

Cyanotoxins: producing organisms, occurrence, toxicity, mechanism of action and human health toxicological risk evaluation
Franca M. Buratti,Maura Manganelli,Susanna Vichi,Mara Stefanelli,Simona Scardala,Emanuela Testai,Enzo Funari +6 more
TL;DR: The properties of the most frequently detected cyanotoxins (namely, microcystins, nodularins, cylindrospermopsin and neurotoxins) are reviewed, describing for each toxin the available information on producing organisms, biosynthesis/genetic and occurrence with a focus on the toxicological profile.

Health impacts from cyanobacteria harmful algae blooms: Implications for the North American Great Lakes.
TL;DR: It is shown that cHABs occur throughout the Great Lakes basin, with reports of animal illness and death, especially dogs and livestock, and that the dominant toxigenic cyanobacterium is the genus Microcystis known to produce microcystins.

TL;DR: In January 2003, the US Environmental Protection Agency sponsored a "roundtable discussion" to develop a consensus on the relationship between eutrophication and harmful algal blooms, specifically targeting those relationships for which management actions may be appropriate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cyanobacterial microcystin-LR is a potent and specific inhibitor of protein phosphatases 1 and 2A from both mammals and higher plants.
TL;DR: The cyclic heptapeptide, microcystin‐LR, inhibits protein phosphatases 1 (PP1) and 2A (PP2A) with K i, values below 0.1 nM, and this results are strikingly similar to those obtained with the tumour promoter okadaic acid.
