Abstract

Four cyclic peptide toxins were purified and quantified from the aqueous extract of algal cell material utilizing high performance liquid chromatography, thin layer chromatography, and fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry. The cyclic peptide toxins appear to be similar structurally to hepatotoxins Iron previously identified blooms of the blue-green alga Microcystis aeruginosa.
