Microcystins are usually the predominant cyanotoxins present in both drinking and recreational waters after cyanobacterial
blooms. Their classic toxic effect is hepatotoxicity through inhibition of serine/threonine ...

Microcystins produced by cyanobacteria are potent inhibitors of some protein phosphatases, but recent evidence also indicatests potential to generate oxidative
stress. In the present study, the effects of microcystin raw ...

Neohelice granulata were collected during a bloom dominated by Microcystis sp. in Patos Lagoon (RS, Brazil) and then sacrificed at
different times of depuration in laboratory in order to verify microcystin (MC) content ...
