Three heptapeptide toxins, microcystin-RR, microcystin-RY and microcystin-LR, which can cause health problems in animals and humans were monitored in Bang Phra Reservoir, Thailand using reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography. The concentrations of the three toxins in the reservoir varied greatly

Dissolved microcystins (MC) are regularly present in water dominated by microcystin-producing, bloom-forming cyanobacteria. In vitro experiments with environmentally feasible concentrations (5 x 10(-7) M) of the three most common microcystins, MC-LR, -RR, and -YR, revealed that they influence the metabolism

Microcystins are cyclic peptide toxins. Chronic intoxication with well-known members of the microcystin family--microcystins-LR--induces liver tumour formation, injury of kidney and heart. Despite worldwide distribution in the environment, the effects of microcystins-YR have not been studied extensively. The aim of
