Natural toxins, 3(1), 50-57 (1995-01-01)
Six microcystins were identified in a laboratory culture of the cyanobacterium (blue-green alga) Microcystis aeruginosa PCC 7813 using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with diode array detection (HPLC-DAD) and mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The toxins were purified and further characterized by amino

The Analyst, 119(7), 1525-1530 (1994-07-01)
Increasing concern over the presence of microcystins (cyanobacterial/blue-green algal hepatotoxins) in water supplies has emphasized the need for a suitable analytical method. As many microcystins are known to exist, a method was developed that permits the determination of numerous variants
