Toxic cyanobacteria and microcystin dynamics in a tropical reservoir: assessing the influence of environmental variables

Thanh-Luu Pham et al.

Summary: Toxic cyanobacterial blooms are a global concern, and this study focused on the dynamics of toxic cyanobacteria and microcystin concentrations in the Tri An Reservoir in Vietnam. Results showed that Microcystis was the dominant group and primary microcystin producer, with environmental factors such as nutrient loading and suspended solids influencing blooms and toxic genotype prevalence.

A review of water quality index models and their use for assessing surface water quality

Md. Galal Uddin et al.

Summary: The water quality index (WQI) model is a popular tool for evaluating surface water quality, converting extensive data into a single index. While commonly used, the model faces issues such as specificity to regional guidelines and uncertainty in data conversion. This paper compares commonly used WQI models and discusses issues affecting model accuracy.

Health risk assessment related to cyanotoxins exposure of a community living near Tri An Reservoir, Vietnam

Thien An Dao Nguyen et al.

Summary: Cyanotoxins released by cyanobacteria pose health risks to people living near the Tri An Reservoir in Dong Nai Province, Vietnam, with microcystin (MC) concentrations exceeding the WHO's permitted level. Results from Monte Carlo simulation technique showed that the rate of MC exposure likely to cause cancer is approximately 1-5%, while oral exposure rate while bathing is less than 2.5%.
