Proposed Project 

Human Exposure to Cyanobacterial 

Toxins in Water (OMB No. 0920–0527 

exp. 2/28/2011)—Revision—National 

Center for Environmental Health 

(NCEH), Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

Cyanobacteria (also called blue-green 

algae) can be found in terrestrial, fresh, 

brackish, or marine water environments. 

Some species of cyanobacteria produce 

toxins that may cause acute or chronic 

illnesses (including neurotoxicity, 

hepatotoxicity, and skin irritation) in 

humans and animals (including other 

mammals, fish, and birds). A number of 

human health effects, including 

gastroenteritis, respiratory effects, skin 

irritations, allergic responses, and liver 

damage, are associated with the 

ingestion of or contact with water 

containing cyanobacterial blooms. 

Although the balance of evidence, in 

conjunction with data from laboratory 

animal research, suggests that 

cyanobacterial toxins are responsible for 

a range of human health effects, there 

have been few epidemiologic studies of 

this association. 

In the first study of recreational 

microcystin (MC) exposure at a small 

lake, 104 study participants from lake 

visitors planning recreational activities 

that would generate aerosols were 

recruited, such as boating and using 

personal watercraft. During data 

collection for that study, MC 

concentrations within the bloom lake 

water were very low (<2–5 μg/L). Study 

participants’ plasma MC concentrations 

were all below the limit of detection 

(0.147 μg/L) for the enzyme-linked 

immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The 

second study of recreational exposure to 

microcystins involved 81 children and 

adults planning recreational activities 

on one of three California reservoirs, 

two with significant, ongoing blooms of 

toxin-producing cyanobacteria, 

including Microcystis aeruginosa 

(bloom lakes) and one without a toxinproducing algal bloom (control lake). 

Highly variable microcystin 

concentrations were found in bloom 

lakes (<10 μg/L to > 500 μg/L); 

microcystin was not detected in control 

lake samples. Neither adenoviruses nor 

enteroviruses were detected in any of 

the lakes. Low microcystin 

concentrations were found in personal 

air samples (< 0.1 ng/m3 [limit of 

detection]—2.89 ng/m3) and nasal 

swabs (< 0.1 ng [limit of detection]—5 

ng). Microcystin concentrations in the 

water-soluble fraction of all plasma 

samples were below the limit of 

detection (1.0 μg/L). Findings indicate 

that recreational activities in 

waterbodies experiencing toxinproducing cyanobacterial blooms can 

generate aerosolized cyanotoxins, 

making inhalation a potential route of 

exposure. 

Based on earlier work, it seems 

unlikely that recreational exposure to 

cyanobacteria toxins during algal 

blooms on small lakes will cause acute 

illness in people. However, there are 

occupational circumstances, such as 

using stagnant ponds to irrigate 

landscapes or golf courses and growing 

and harvesting catfish in standing 

ambient water ponds, where exposure to 

these toxins is likely to be greater than 

what have been observed during 

recreational activities. It is possible that 

these workers may be exposed to 

biologically relevant concentrations of 

cyanobacterial toxins while performing 

job-related activities. To address this 

concern, this proposal is to assess 

exposure of catfish farm workers to 

cyanobacteria toxins occurring in the 

standing water of catfish ponds in 

Alabama. Dr. Alan Wilson of Auburn 

University will be a collaborator. Dr. 

Wilson has considerable experience 

working with the catfish farmers to 

address how the presence of 

cyanobacteria in pond water can impact 

the taste and odor of catfish offered for 

sale to commercial markets. Since most 

of the ponds of interest tend to develop 

HABs comprising Microcystis 

aeruginosa, this study will be limited to 

exposure to microcystins. 

The purpose of the new data 

collection is to continue assessing the 

public health impact of exposure to the 

cyanobacterial toxins, microcystins. The 

extent of human exposure to 

microcystins present in catfish pond 

waters and associated aerosols and 

whether serum levels of microcystins 

can be used as a biomarker of exposure 

will be examined.
