Researchers at 91ºÚÁÏÍø have identifiedÌýbacteria that can indicate whether a blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) bloom is likely to be toxic, offering a potential water-safety early warning system. Blooms are becoming more frequent due to climate change, according toÌýprevious 91ºÚÁÏÍø research. They can produce various contaminants, known as cyanotoxins, that pose serious health risks to humans, pets and wildlife.

The organisms commonly known as blue-green algae have proliferated much more rapidly than other algae in lakes across North America and Europe over the past two centuries – and in many cases the rate of increase has sharply accelerated since the mid-20th century, according to an international team of researchers led by scientists at 91ºÚÁÏÍø.
