Calothrix Details: NCBI 1186, gram-negative or unknown [genus]
| Calothrix
Toxin Production: Some cyanobacteria, including certain species of Calothrix, have the potential to produce toxins known as cyanotoxins. These toxins can be harmful to humans and animals if they are present in sufficient concentrations.
Water Contamination: Blooms of cyanobacteria, including Calothrix species, can lead to the formation of algal blooms in bodies of water. These blooms may produce toxins that can contaminate water sources used for drinking, swimming, and other recreational activities.
Human Health Effects: Exposure to cyanotoxins from contaminated water can cause a range of health effects in humans. These effects may include skin irritation, gastrointestinal symptoms (such as nausea and diarrhea), respiratory symptoms, and in some cases, more severe effects on the liver or nervous system.
Animal Health: Animals, including pets and livestock, can also be affected by cyanotoxins if they come into contact with or ingest contaminated water. Animals may exhibit symptoms such as lethargy, vomiting, diarrhea, and in severe cases, organ failure.
Environmental Impact: Cyanobacterial blooms, including those formed by Calothrix species, can have environmental consequences. These blooms can deplete oxygen levels in water, leading to "dead zones" where aquatic life cannot thrive. The decomposition of dead cyanobacteria can further contribute to water quality issues.

Lab Reporting
Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.
Desired Levels Suggestions for Calothrix
- Frequency - how often do samples show this bacteria
- UD - An alternative statistical algorithm (which factors in the frequency)
- Kaltoft-Moldrup Heuristic Using uploaded data
- Lab Low and High are calculated using the formula that most labs use: Mean - 2 Standard Deviation to Mean + 2 Standard Deviation
