General description

Microcystin-LY is generally produced by cyanobacteria in freshwater systems and is found as a toxic analog of microcystin.

Application

Microcystin-LY may be used as an analytical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in raw and treated waters using high-performance liquid chromatography with photo-diode array detection (HPLC-PDA).
