Colloidal particles, mixture with continuous molecular weight distribution and multiple organic components, is widespread in lake and have significant impact on the retention, migration, transportation, and fate of contaminants in lake ecosystems. Here we extract sedimentary colloids from algal growth dominant area (AD) in Taihu Lake and further separated into four different particle size ranges by cross-flow ultra-filtration (CFUF). The interaction mechanism between colloids and Microcystin-LR (MC-LR) was investigated under different cation conditions by dialysis equilibrium experiment method. Adsorption kinetics research shows the adsorption of MC-LR by colloids follows second-order kinetics and can be simulated by Freundlich isotherms. The effects of different cations on colloids-MC-LR interaction shows the addition of Mg(II) decreased colloids-MC-LR interaction, while Cu(II) increased colloids-MC-LR binding. MC-LR also increased Cu(II) binding to colloids, while MC-LR decreased Mg(II) binding. Therefore, different effect of cations to colloids-MC-LR interaction was proposed.
