Blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) Overview

Оглавление

Blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) are commonly found growing in fresh and salt water in temperate areas worldwide. Under certain climatic and nutritional conditions cyano-bacteria reproduce explosively, resulting in algae blooms that accumulate at the water surface and sometimes produce hepatotoxins and/or neurotoxins. Dogs can be exposed by drinking or ingesting contaminated water while swimming (Edwards et al., 1992; Gugger et al., 2005; Puschner et al., 2010; Elford et al., 2012; Faassen et al., 2012). Cats seem to be affected less commonly than dogs.
