Popis:	Cyanobacteria, often referred to as blue-green algae, are a diverse group of photosynthetic bacteria that play a crucial role in various ecosystems. However, their proliferation and toxin production pose significant challenges to environmental, animal, and human health. In recent years, the interplay between cyanobacteria, climate change, and the production of cyanotoxins has garnered increased attention. This short note aims to delve into the intricate relationship between cyanobacteria and the production of cyanotoxins, the toxicological risks associated with exposure, and strategies for risk assessment and management.
