A research team led by Professor Eun-Jung Park of the College of Medicine identifies the respiratory risks of “microcystin” found in green algae and proposes safety guidelines for the public. Utilizing experimental animals and a 3D reconstructed human airway model, the team (including Professors Jin-Bae Kim, Cheon Woong Choi, and Moon-hyung Lee) derived Maximum Non-Lethal Dose (MNLD), the No-Observed-Adverse-Effect Level (NOAEL), and the Tolerable Daily Intake (TDI) to safeguard health from green algae risks.
