Abstract
Algal toxins have various adverse implications on the ecosystem directly and indirectly. Cyanotoxins, a group of algal toxins produced by toxic cyanobacteria, are of great concern. The understanding of their occurrence, properties, detection, and removal from water bodies is of importance for monitoring and management of cyanotoxins in freshwater bodies.
