Talk:Cyanotoxin

Too much mixing of algae bloom discussion in a cyanobacteria article
Cyanobacteria produce cyanotoxins. These derive from harmful blooms of bacteria. Red tides, dinoflagellates, and algal blooms are similar, but don't produce cyanotoxins. This could probably be cleaned up by using a reference to algal blooms instead of going off topic in this article. --204.44.137.252 (talk) 13:40, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Ref 19 (HABs) is broken link
Wasn't sure where to put this, but hopefully someone knows what to do? Footnote #19 (about HABs) is a broken link.

Thanks! --davetron — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.49.55.206 (talk) 02:19, 20 July 2017 (UTC)

Correlation between cyanobacteria and cyanotoxin ?
A Homer Simpson type (i.e. the guy who hears Dr Hibbert exclaim that Homer requires open heart surgery; when Dr Hibbert finally 'dumbs it down' to We are going to tinker with your ticker, 'he gets it') is requesting that if there is some elaboration of the process from which a cyanobacteria colony generates the various cyanotoxins this article expands upon, I could make the connection I am hopeful wrt 'cause and effect'. For reference I looked up the salmonella wikipedia article and (sorta) understand the process of bacteria intake to 'symptoms' and the impact on cells. Some explanation (step by step) in that 'scope' would be very illuminating for this article...

Conversely: Since cyanobacteria is everywhere, maybe an explanation of what 'triggers' a cyanotoxin event vs 'peaceful coexistence' would also be of interests to some (i.e. prevention methods).

Biological role
Would be very helpful to include something on the bioloigcal role of cyanotoxins - why do cyanobacteria produce them at all? Kyle MoJo (talk) 06:10, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
