Resumo(s): | [Excerpt] Worldwide occurrence of cyanobacterium Microcystis aeruginosa and accumulation of its hepatotoxin microcystin (MC) have been responsible for several incidents, leading the World Health Organization to implement guideline values for this toxin in water thus boosting the demand for MC’s analytical standards. Furthermore, cyanotoxins are also considered promising anticancer/antitumor drugs as well as antifungal, antialgal and insecticide agents. Consequently, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has introduced cyanotoxins in its list of substances to be studied as a precursor to regulatory action between 2018 and 2020. [...] |
