Cyanobacteria proliferate in warm, nutrient-rich environments, and release cyanotoxins into natural waters. If cyanotoxin-contaminated water is used to irrigate agricultural crops, this could expose humans and other biota to cyanotoxins. However, cyanotoxins may be degraded by the diverse microbial consortia, be adsorbed or otherwise dissipate in agricultural soil. This study investigates the disappearance and transformation of 9 cyanotoxins in controlled soil microcosms after 28 d. Six soil types were exposed to factorial combinations of light, redox conditions and microbial activity that influenced the recovery of anabaenopeptin-A (AP-A), anabaenopeptin-B (AP-B), anatoxin-a (ATX-a), cylindrospermopsin (CYN), and the microcystin (MC) congeners -LR, -LA, -LY, -LW, and -LF. Cyanotoxins estimated half-lives were from hours to several months, depending on the compound and soil conditions. Cyanotoxins were eliminated via biological reactions in aerobic and anaerobic soils, although anaerobic conditions accelerated the biological dissipation of ATX-a, CYN and APs. ATX-a was sensitive to photolytic degradation, but CYN, and MCs were not reduced through photochemical transformation. MC-LR and -LA were recovered after exposure to light, redox conditions and low microbial activity, suggesting that they persisted in extractable forms, compared to other cyanotoxins in soil. Cyanotoxin degradation products were identified using high-resolution mass spectrometry, revealing their potential degradation pathways in soil.
