Lowering pH enhances copper toxicity: A novel strategy for controlling harmful algal blooms and off-flavors

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) severely disrupt aquatic ecosystems by degrading water quality and producing unpalatable off-flavors in aquaculture products and drinking water. Copper sulfate pentahydrate (CuSO4·5 H2O) has been used as an affordable and FDA-approved algaecide to manage HABs for decades....
