Description

Microcystin are a class of hepatotoxins produced by blue-green algae such as Microcystis aeruginosa.  Microcystin-LR is the most common of the over 50 different congeners. Cyanobacteria can produce microcystin in large quantities during an algae bloom which then pose a major threat.

This kit can be used for quantitative test of Microcystin in liquid samples such as water, wastewater, algal cultures, and solid samples such as fish.
