Toxic cyanobacteria in public water supply reservoirs represent a serious health risk as they can release potent cyanotoxins into the water. In the present study we analyzed surface water collected from the Utinga Reservoir, the main source of drinking water for the city of Belém-PA, in order to characterize the reservoir's cyanobacterial biota and to determine the toxicity of these organisms and...
During the monitoring of toxic cyanobacteria in the Utinga Reservoir, which is the main drinking water supply for the city of Belem, PA, Brazil, a Radiocystis fernandoi strain (SPC714) was isolated. This non-axenic strain was submitted to a toxicity bioassay with mice and microcystin production analyzed by HPLC-DAD. The species was identified based on cultured and natural preserved material. Morphometric,...
