Food Safety Action Plan report : 2011-2012 targeted surveys - chemistry : microcystins and nodularin in bottled water.: A104-557/2012E-PDF
"The main objective of this targeted survey was to generate baseline surveillance data on the microcystin and nodularin levels in bottled water available on the Canadian retail market. Cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae, are commonly found in surface water algae blooms or blue-green scums. Cyanobacteria can produce hepatotoxins, of which microcystins and nodularin are the most common cyanobacterial toxins found in water"--Executive summary, page 2.
