Hello, I am an 8th grade student working on a science project testing for 
the purity of different brands of water. I found that one of the toxins 
that can be found in water is cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green
algae. If there are other toxins that I could test for in water, please 
tell them to me and how I could test them too. Thank you for your time, 
and keep up the good work!
