Resumen
Las microcistinas son toxinas hepatotoxicas producidas por cianobacterias del género Microcystis, Anabaena, Oscillatoria y Nostoc(Merel et al., 2013). Debido a que se ha evidenciado la presencia de estas cianobacterias en lagunas de tratamiento en Costa Rica, se ha evaluado la presencia de microcistinas y su relación con la abundancia de cianobacterias en estos sistemas.

Because the presence of these cyanobacteria has been evidenced in treatment lagoons in Costa Rica, the presence of microcystins and its relationship with the abundance of cyanobacteria in these systems has been evaluated.
