Details about Megasphaera hominis: NCBI 159836, gram-negative or unknown

  1. Toxin Production: Some cyanobacteria can produce toxins known as cyanotoxins. The presence of these toxins in water bodies, known as harmful algal blooms (HABs), can have adverse effects on human health if the contaminated water is ingested or comes into contact with the skin.

  2. Gastrointestinal Issues: Consumption of water or food contaminated with cyanotoxins can lead to gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain.

  3. Hepatotoxicity: Certain cyanotoxins, such as microcystins, can have hepatotoxic effects, potentially leading to liver damage if ingested in significant amounts.

  4. Neurotoxicity: Some cyanotoxins, like anatoxin-a, can have neurotoxic effects, affecting the nervous system and potentially leading to symptoms such as muscle twitching, weakness, and respiratory distress.

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 Megasphaera hominis
