The recent frequent outbreaks of cyanobacterial blooms have resulted in increasing microcystins (MCs) issues in Korea. Due to their accumulation in aquatic organisms, MCs also represent a health hazard to animals and humans higher up in the food chain. The toxicity of the parent compounds and the decomposed products in MCs could be evaluated differently based on their mode of toxic action. Therefore, the hazard of MCs was reviewed through recent studies. MCs with such high risk must be highly accurate in analysis results for management through environmental regulations. The concept of single-laboratory lowest concentration minimum reporting level (LCMRL) was proposed to ensure the quantification for regulated compounds by US EPA in 2006. The LCMRL is evaluated through 4 or more repetitions at 6 concentration levels including 0, so it is possible to evaluate accuracy and precision at low detection levels. The test range of LCMRL in MC-LR was 0.02 ? 0.5 ug/L, and in the case of MC-LR, the LOQ and MRL were 0.023 ug/L and 0.074 ug/L, respectively. The results of LCMRL study indicate that use of the MRLs is a valid new approach to ensuring quality and consistency in low-level analytical measurements. |
