蓝细菌（也称为蓝绿藻）在水生环境中无处不在。有些物种产生的强力毒素可以使人、家畜和野生动物中毒或死亡。狗特别容易受到氰毒素中毒，因为它们倾向于在藻类大量繁殖期间游泳和饮用受污染的水，或者摄入藻类垫。在这里，我们总结了来自三个来源的美国疑似或确诊犬氰毒素中毒的报告：（1）国家环境卫生中心（NCEH），疾病控制和预防中心（CDC）的有害藻类水华相关疾病监测系统（HABISS）;（2）来自加州一家大型区域兽医医院的回顾性病例档案;以及（3）公开的科学和医学手稿;书面媒体;以及来自宠物主人、兽医和其他个人的基于网络的报告。我们在20世纪20年代末至2012年期间在美国各地确定了231起谨慎的蓝藻有害藻华（cyanoHAB）事件和368起与狗相关的氰毒素中毒病例。这里回顾的犬氰毒素中毒事件可能代表了美国每年发生的一小部分病例。
Cyanobacteria (also called blue-green algae) are ubiquitous in aquatic environments. Some species produce potent toxins that can sicken or kill people, domestic animals, and wildlife. Dogs are particularly vulnerable to cyanotoxin poisoning because of their tendency to swim in and drink contaminated water during algal blooms or to ingestalgal mats.. Here, we summarize reports of suspected or confirmed canine cyanotoxin poisonings in the U.S. from three sources: (1) The Harmful Algal Bloom-related Illness Surveillance System (HABISS) of the National Center for Environmental Health (NCEH), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC); (2) Retrospective case files from a large, regional veterinary hospital in California; and (3) Publicly available scientific and medical manuscripts; written media; and web-based reports from pet owners, veterinarians, and other individuals. We identified 231 discreet cyanobacteria harmful algal bloom (cyanoHAB) events and 368 cases of cyanotoxinpoisoning associated with dogs throughout the U.S. between the late 1920s and 2012. The canine cyanotoxin poisoning events reviewed here likely represent a small fraction of cases that occur throughout the U.S. each year.
