Animal experiments have proved that it can affect the fetal development of mice through the placental barrier, causing hepatitis and hyacinth damage in fetal mice; it has been proved to be a cancer-promoting agent for liver cancer, and may affect the liver function of children; MC and hepatitis viruses and aflatoxins synergistically can cause liver cancer.

In 1996, 126 patients in Brazilian hemodialysis centers used MC-contaminated lake water for dialysis, and toxic hepatitis occurred, killing 55 people. Spirulina products everywhere are currently produced in a way that does not allow for the complete separation of spirulina and microcystins.
