CYANOBACTERIA AND CYANOTOXINS: MYTH OR REALITY?

Abstract:
The problem of propagation of cyanobacteria in waters associated with global eutrophication, and the status of its research in the world is described. In Ukraine today the problem of cyanobacteria and cyanotoxins in reservoirs, particularly in hygiene and health and environmental aspects, is poorly understood. The necessity of monitoring the content of cyanobacteria in the reservoirs; the introduction of standardized methods for determining cyanotoxins during bloom; study the cyanotoxins effect on biota; development of risk models for health recreational and drinking water after disinfection of surface water intakes supplying drinking water is substantiated.
Keywords: cyanobacteria, cyanotoxins, bloom in surface water bodies, recreational water, disinfection of drinking water.
