Abstract: Microcystins (MCs) are toxins produced by cyanobacteria, posing a significant emerging threat to human and public health. Therefore, control strategies combining frequent toxin monitoring with removal techniques are urgently needed. In this context, microcystin degradation… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/toxins14090602
Abstract: Cyanobacterial hepatotoxins, including microcystins (MCs) and nodularins (NODs), are widely produced, distributed and extremely hazardous to human beings and the environment. However, the catalytic mechanism of microcystinase for biodegrading cyanobacterial hepatotoxins is not completely understood… read more here.
