  Phytoplankton is an important organism that supports the aquatic ecosystem as a primary producer. However, depending on eutrophication and climatic conditions, they can proliferate abnormally, causing damage to fisheries and the environment. There are also many phytoplankton that produce toxins, and blue-green algae in lakes and marshes have become a problem for securing water for domestic use. We are developing environmentally friendly measures against blue-green algae and red tides with the help of algaecides that kill harmful algae. Through this kind of research, we hope to contribute to SDG (6 CLEAN WATER AND SANITATION).
