Abstract
Toxic red tides due to blue green alga‐Aphanizomenon flos‐aquae are becomming common occurrence in the lakes of New Hampshire. The toxins from Aphaizomenon flos‐aquae were purified by a high performance chromatographic method. One of the toxins was identified as saxitoxin; the other three gave reactions indicating their structural similarity to toxins isolated from Gonyaulax tamarensis.Keywords
