To explore removal effect of riverside pumping project on microcystins in the Yellow River.
In the summer and autumn of 2008, water samples of the Yellow River and five selected tube-wells in "9 x 5" beach of riverside pumping project were collected and microcystin contents in water were determined using ELISA.
Microcystin contents in water in the Yellow River were less than microcystin-LR reference value in Drinking Water Standards. The average contents of the autumn of microcystins were more higher than those of the summer (P < 0.01). Microcystins contents of five tube-wells were more lower than those of the Yellow River. Removal effect of riverside pumping project on microcystins has nothing to do with the distance from the trunk of the Yellow River.
Riverside pumping project has a good removal efficiency on microcystins.
