Q » What are cyanotoxins and why are they dangerous?
03 Nov, 2025
A » Cyanotoxins are toxic compounds produced by certain species of cyanobacteria, commonly known as blue-green algae. These toxins pose significant health risks to humans and animals, potentially causing liver damage, neurological effects, and gastrointestinal issues. They are particularly concerning in freshwater systems used for drinking water, recreation, and agriculture, as they can contaminate water supplies and are not easily removed by conventional water purification methods.
