AB  - Microalgae and cyanobacteria are fundamental components of aquatic ecosystems. 
      Pollution in aquatic environment is a worldwide problem. Toxicological research 
      on microalgae and cyanobacteria can help to establish a solid foundation for 
      aquatic ecotoxicological assessments. Algae and cyanobacteria occupy a large 
      proportion of the biomass in aquatic environments; thus, their toxicological 
      responses have been investigated extensively. However, the depth of toxic 
      mechanisms and breadth of toxicological investigations need to be improved. While 
      existing pollutants are being discharged into the environment daily, new ones are 
      also being produced continuously. As a result, the phenomenon of water pollution 
      has become unprecedentedly complex. In this review, we summarize the latest 
      findings on five kinds of aquatic pollutants, namely, metals, nanomaterials, 
      pesticides, pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs), and persistent 
      organic pollutants (POPs). Further, we present information on emerging pollutants 
      such as graphene, microplastics, and ionic liquids. Efforts in studying the 
      toxicological effects of pollutants on microalgae and cyanobacteria must be 
      increased in order to better predict the potential risks posed by these materials 
      to aquatic ecosystems as well as human health.
