Broad Cross-Reactivity of a Microcystin ELISA Confirmed Using 19 Quantitative Reference Materials
for total MCs in drinking water was 0.06 μg/L─well below the WHO's guideline of 1 μg/L for long-term exposure. This ELISA provides a promising tool for the rapid and sensitive quantification of total MCs, including metabolites and conjugates, over a diverse range of sample types.
