This study reports the presence of the cyanobacterial toxin cylindrospermopisn (CYN) and its producer Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii for the first time in Saudi freshwater sources. C. raciborskii was found in Gazan Dam Lake water with two morphotypes (coiled and straight). The
Cylindrospermopsin is a cyanobacterial toxin frequently implicated in cyanobacterial blooms that is approaching an almost cosmopolitan distribution pattern. Moreover, the predominant extracellular availability of this cyanotoxin makes it particularly likely to be taken up by a variety of aquatic organisms

The increasing presence of cyanotoxin producers in several regions of the world is hazardous for humans and animals. Cylindrospermopsin (CYN) is nowadays recognized as a widely distributed freshwater cyanobacterial toxin. This toxin has been shown to induce protein synthesis inhibition

Microcystins (MCs) and cylindrospermopsin (CYN) are among the cyanotoxins which occur naturally, produced by different cyanobacteria species when they grow or proliferate under favorable environmental conditions. From a toxicological point of view, their relevance is due to the deleterious effects
The occurrence of cyanobacterial blooms in aquatic environments is increasing in many regions of the world due to progressive eutrophication of water bodies. Because of the production of toxins such as Cylindrospermopsin (CYN), contamination of water with cyanobacteria is a
