Toxic blue -green algae present a hazard to human populations that are exposed through drinking water or recreational activities. The toxins include hepatotoxic peptides, a cytotoxic alkaloid, neurotoxic alkaloids, and saxitoxin derivatives, with allergens and lipopolysaccharides also present. The r

## Abstract The effects of the planktonic blue‐green algae, __Aphanizomenon gracile, Synechococcus elongatus__, and __Microcystis aeruginosa__, on survival, growth, and food uptake of __Daphnia pulicaria__ were determined. __Synechococcus__ and __Aphanizomenon__ were unsuitable food when offered al
These data originate from another experiment carried out under similar conditions, which affords an identical product.
The effect of pH on copper toxicity to two planktonic blue-green algae, Aphanizomenon gracile and Oscillatoria redekei, was investigated. Growth rates of the algae without copper treatment decrease with pH, Aphanizornenon is earlier and more affected than Oscillatoria. On the other hand, pH-lowering
## Abstract From 1977 to 1979 plankton samples were taken from 6 lakes in the German Democratic Republic (GDR) during water blooms and examined for their toxicity to homothermal animals. __Microcystis aeruginosa, Aphanizomenon flos‐aquae, Anabaena spiroides__, and __Oscillatoria redekei__ were domi
