Abstract

Anatoxin-a (s) is a neurotoxic alkaloid associated with the blue-green alga Anabaena flos- aquae.'It potent toxicity (LDSo 20-40 bg/kg mice) is attributed to exceptional anticholinesterase activity. 2 We report here the isolation of anatoxin-a (s) from a cultured strain NRC 525-17 and a field-collected bloom implicated in animal poisonings3 and the determination of its structure as
