Methods for detecting exposure to cyantoxins
Project ID: D2018-46Background Harmful Algal Blooms (HAB) are becoming more frequent worldwide due to factors such as temperature increase and pollution. Microcystins (MC) are carcinogenic toxins released by the algae during a blooms. MC exposure can occur via skin contact, inhalation, and ingestion and can cause illness in people and animals. MC detection...
