Resumen:
A bibliographic review was developed by consulting various sources of information (articles, books, abstracts, etc.), obtained from the Web of Science database, Scopus, biological abstracts, etc. They are describing the most relevant studies of the last three decades chronologically, from historical researches, as well as current topics under various sub-themes, critically analyzing nearly 200 articles with the aim to expose simply but the straightforward way the general characteristics of cyanobacteria, the main conditions that favour the formation and persistence of blooms or ``CyanoHABs''; negative implications on water resources due to cyanotoxins production, emphasizing the reference limits established for the hepatotoxin Microcystin-LR in water for human consumption, in recreational systems and food products; methodologies developed for monitoring toxic strains and a summary of the research published in Mexico on cyanobacteria and their toxins. Finally, some control procedures used in the remediation of systems with cyanobacterial blooms are discussed.
