Health advisory issued for Ririe Reservoir after potentially dangerous toxins found
IDAHO FALLS — Idaho health officials are warning people to stay out of the water at Ririe Reservoir after testing found high levels of toxin-producing cyanobacteria. The Idaho Department of Health and Welfare issued a health advisory for the reservoir, located east of Idaho Falls off U.S. Highway 26 in Bonneville County. Recent water samples […]
In 2024, scientists dyed Peter Lake blue with Aquashade to starve algae of light, but the water still turned green, and the team suspects repeated rain kept flushing the pigment out.
In summer 2024, Cascade Project researchers dyed Michigan's Peter Lake blue with Aquashade to limit light for algae, then added fertiliser; the lake still greened, and the team suspects rain flushed the pigment.

Scientists stunned as bacteria rewire DNA machinery to shape cells
Cyanobacteria—ancient microbes that oxygenated Earth and made complex life possible—are still revealing surprises billions of years later. Scientists have now discovered that a molecular system once used to separate DNA has been repurposed into something entirely different: a structure that shapes the cell itself.

Scientists find a natural sunscreen hidden in hot springs bacteria
Researchers studying cyanobacteria from hot springs in Thailand have discovered a new natural UV-blocking compound with impressive antioxidant power. Unlike conventional sunscreens, it’s biocompatible and potentially safer for both people and the environment. The molecule is produced only under UV and salt stress and uses a unique biosynthetic pathway never seen before. This could help drive a new generation of eco-friendly sunscreens and skincare products.
