This project investigates the production of microcystins, harmful toxins from cyanobacteria, and their impact on human health. It focuses on understanding toxin exposure through water and aerosols in populations near toxic blooms, utilizing advanced monitoring techniques and hydrodynamic modeling to assess risks and he…
Microcystins (MC) are potent cyclic heptapeptide toxins that are produced by many cyanobacterial genera e.g.
Planktothrix, Microcystis.
Human exposure occurs primarily during bloom events, via drinking or contact with contaminated water, food or aerosols.
While food exposure and corresponding health effects are rare, exposure to high MC concentrations via drinking water has resulted in morbidity and mortality.
However, little is known about the level of MC exposure in humans when sub-chronically…
