N2 - Mine Water Quality: Spread of Blue-Green Algae. ACARP C14051, Part C. The ability of cyanobacterial species to contaminate water sources is quite well documented, as is the capacity for different species/strains of these micro-organisms to produce toxins that may affect those that ingest or come in contact with these waters. As part of a larger study to address mechanisms to improve water quality of pit and recycled mine waters in the Bowen Basin, a scoping study was performed to assess the suitability of immunological assays to a) detect immunostimulatory agents present in mine water samples and b) shed light on the nature of the immune effect that was elicited by such factors on human and animal cells that may be exposed to these waters.
