But that study didn't seem to find a problem in procured supplements:
"Using two advanced LC-MS/MS techniques, we were unable to detect BMAA to a level of 80 ng/g in any of the product samples. Although reassuring, the small sample of pure spirulina and spirulina-containing retail products can only be considered as a preliminary step toward larger investigations..."
