Promotes flocculation of cyanobacteria cell debris, binds residual phosphate compounds and promotes gradual settling of the cyanobacterial biomass on the sediment.
Attogene’s Montmorillonite Bentonite Clay binds toxins with high affinity and high capacity. Montmorillonite has been shown to be the active ingredient in bentonites. The proposed mechanism of action of Attogene’s Montmorillonite Bentonite Clay is through the adsorption of toxins (mainly onto the interlayer spaces of montmorillonite). Attogene’s Montmorillonite Bentonite Clay is a common anti-caking agent in animal feeds to adsorb aflatoxins and diminish their bioavailability. Its composite for application in drug system can be formed through the utilization of anionic, cationic, and nonionic surfactants.
Bentonite is a promising rock of clay which is found in nature. It is a major source of montmorillonite in nature. It is a rock produced of highly colloidal and plastic clays mainly comprised of montmorillonite. In addition to montmorillonite, bentonite may compose of some amount of crystalline quarz, cristobalite, and feldspar. Montmorillonite nanoclay is used as a drug carrier system and as an additive. Its composite for application in drug system can be formed through the utilization of anionic, cationic, and nonionic surfactants. These are used to improve basal spacing resulting in organo clay to be utilised in drug loading and drug release.

Attogene’ s Cylindrospermopsin Lateral Flow Kit can be used to detect Cylindrospermopsin in source water samples.
Format: Rapid-Water – Run Time: 30 Minutes, enough to run two samples at 10 and 100 fold dilutions and two negative controls.
Cylindrospermopsin (CYN) is a potent cyanotoxin synthesized by select species of cyanobacteria, prominently including Cylindrospermopsin raciborskii. It belongs to the tricyclic alkaloid class, exhibiting a molecular weight of approximately 415 Da. Structurally, cylindrospermopsin features an uracil ring fused with a hydantoin moiety, alongside a guanidino group, attributes that render it highly soluble and polar in aqueous environments.
Cylindrospermopsin is notorious for its profound toxicity towards aquatic organisms and its potential threat to human health through exposure via contaminated water and food sources. Consequently, rigorous monitoring protocols are essential in regions prone to cyanobacterial blooms, where cylindrospermopsin can accumulate in freshwater reservoirs and other aquatic habitats. In recognition of these risks, regulatory bodies such as the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have implemented an action level guideline. As of 2019, EPA 10-day drinking water health advisory for cylindrospermopsin recommended a threshold of 0.7 parts per billion (ppb), or 700 parts per trillion (ppt) for children under the age of six, and 3 parts per billion, 3000 parts per trillion for anyone older, to effectively manage cylindrospermopsin levels. This precautionary measure aims to uphold both environmental sustainability and public health integrity by minimizing exposure risks. The EPA has also drafted a human health recreational water quality criterion to protect human health at 8,000ppt.
Do not Drink – 0.7 μg/L for bottle fed infants and preschool children, pregnant and nursing woman, elderly immunocompromised and liver conditions
Do not Drink – 3.0 μg/L for school age children to adults
Do Not Use – 20 μg/L
EPA Draft Human Health Recreational Ambient Water Quality Criteria to protect human health: 8 μg/L

The Opentrons Temperature Module, compatible with both the OT-2 and Flex Robots, is a fully automated thermoelectric module and integrated for use with the Opentrons platform. It is used to achieve temperature changes ranging from 4 to 95°C for various applications.
The Temperature Module GEN2 is compatible with the new Opentrons Flex Robot when paired with the Flex Temperature Caddy and Calibration Adapter. The caddy sits below the deck to enable below-deck cable routing and labware placed on modules remain closer to the deck surface. The calibration adapter is used to calibrate the location of the module. If you choose to include the Opentrons Flex Caddy and Calibration Adapter, your order will ship in 20 business days.
