Text S1. Standards and description of reagents.
A sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) solution was used as the source of chlorine (5% active chlorine,
J.T.Baker). EPA 501/601 trihalomethanes calibration mix (2000 µg/mL each component in
methanol), including chloroform, dichlorobromomethane, dibromochloromethane and
bromoform was provide by Supelco (Sigma-Aldrich). EPA 551B halogenated volatiles mix
(2000 µg/mL each component in acetone), including bromochloroacetonitrile (BCAN),
dibromoacetonitrile (DBAN), dichloroacetonitrile (DCAN), trichloroacetonitrile (TCAN) was
provide by Supelco (Sigma-Aldrich). Dichloroiodomethane (DCIM), bromochloroiodomethane
(BCIM), dibromoiodomethane (DBIM), chlorodiiodomethane (CDIM), bromodiiodomethane
(BDIM), bromodichloroacetaldehyde (BDCAL), dibromochloroacetaldehyde (DBCAL), and
tribromoacetaldehyde (TBAL) were purchased from CanSyn Chem. Corp. Triiodomethane
(TIM), chloroacetonitrile (CAN), and bromoacetonitrile (BAN) were provided by Sigma-
Aldrich.
Text S2. Culturing of cyanobacteria and extraction of algal organic matter (AOM)
Microcystis aeruginosa (Strain: LB 2061, originated from Madison, Wisconsin, USA) was
purchased from Culture Collection of Algae at the University of Texas, Austin, TX, USA.
Cyanobacterial cells were cultured in 5 L of BG-11 media with fluorescent lamps under
automatic dark and light cycles (12 h dark and 12 h light daily) at room temperature (21±1 C).
The number of cells in the suspension was measured with a microscope (Axioskop 2 plus, Zeiss,
Germany) (Liu et al. 2018).
The extraction of AOM was conducted according to our previous study (Liu et al. 2018).
Cyanobacterial cells were collected during the late exponential growth phase. A centrifuge
process with a rate of 5000 rpm for 15 min was used to separate the cells from the media. After
discarding the supernatant, remaining cells were rinsed with MQ water for at least three times to
remove the constituents from the media. Three freeze−thaw cycling (−77 °C in a freezer and 35
°C in water bath) was employed to break the cells. Afterwards, cells were sonicated for 30 min in
an ice bath to release the AOM. The centrifuge process was used again to separate the
suspensions containing cell debris and AOM, and then supernatant was filtered with 0.45 μm
cellulose acetate membranes. The filtrate was used as AOM.

Text S3. Analytical methods
Ultraviolet (UV) absorbance at 254 nm was measured using a Cary 50 UV-Vis
spectrophotometer (Varian) based on Standard Method 5910B (American Public Health
Association 1998). Samples were placed in a 1 cm quartz cuvette and measured at a wavelength
of 254 nm.
The total dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and dissolved nitrogen (DN) were determined with a
Shimadzu TOC-VCHS or TOC-LCHS high temperature combustion analyzer (Shimadzu Corp.,
Kyoto, Japan) equipped with a TN module according to Standard Method 5310B (American
Public Health Association 1998). TOC standards were prepared by diluting 1000 mg C/L
potassium hydrogen phthalate solution in the range of 0.2-15 mg C/L. TN standards were
prepared by diluting 1000 mg N/L potassium nitrate solution in the range of 0.2-5 mg N/L. The
MRLs for these measurements were determined to be 0.15 mg/L and 0.1 mg/L for DOC and DN,
respectively.
Concentrations of hypohalous acid (HOX, the sum of HOCl, HOBr and HOI) were analyzed
spectrophotometrically by the N,N-diethyl-p-phenylenediamine (DPD) method at 515 nm on a
UV-visible spectrophotometer (Cary 50) (American Public Health Association 1998).
A Dionex ICS-2100 ion chromatography system (Dionex, Sunnyvale, CA) was used to
determine nitrite, nitrate, chloride, bromide and iodide concentrations in aqueous solutions. The
mobile phase for the system was 20 mM KOH and a dionex AS-19 column coupled with an AG-
19 guard column were used for separation. The minimum reporting limit for nitrite, nitrate,
chloride, bromide, and iodide was 20, 15, 5, 10, and 25 μg/L, respectively.
Iodate was quantified by a Dionex 2100 reagent free ion chromatograph (IC) through AS 19
analytical column with a post-column reaction unit with UV/Vis detection of I3- at 351 nm
according to a previous method with some modifications (Salhi and von Gunten 1999). The
quantification limit of IO3−was 0.5 μg/L and the standard deviation was <10%.
S3
For the analyses of trihalomethanes (THMs), haloacetonitriles (HANs), iodinated
trihalomethanes (I-THMs), and haloacetaldehydes (HALs), samples (40 mL) were transferred
into 60 ml extraction vials which was followed by addition of 2.4 ml of MtBE and 10 g of pre-
oven dried sodium sulfate, respectively. The extraction vials were then placed on a shaker table
for 30 min. After 30 min, vials were placed on the bench for 10 min for phase separation. MtBE
phase was withdrawn and analyzed on an Agilent 6890 GC equipped with a DB-1 column (J&W
Scientific 30m x 0.25mm x 0.001mm), and an electron capture detector (ECD). The GC
temperature program was 35 C for 15 min, 25 C/min to 145 C and hold for 3 min, 35 C/min to
240 C and hold for 5 min. A 2 mL injection volume was used in splitless mode. The carrier and
make-up gases were ultra-high purity (UHP) hydrogen and UHP nitrogen, respectively. The total
run time was 30.11 min. The injector and detector temperatures were set at 230 and 260 C,
respectively. The minimum reporting limit for DBP measurements was 0.2 µg/L.
Text S4. Calculations of iodine substitution factor and iodine utilization factor.
Iodine substitution factor (ISF, between 0 and 1) is defined as the ratio of the molar
concentration of iodine incorporated into a given class of DBPs to the total molar concentrations
of chlorine, bromine and iodine in that class, as shown in Equation 1.

When THM (10 species, including six I-THMs and THM4) was used as an example, molar
concentrations of iodine and sum of chlorine, bromine and iodine could be calculated by
Equations 2 and 3, respectively, where THM10 is sum of 10 species of THMs. ISF of THM can
be calculated by Equation 4.
THMI = [DCIM] + [BCIM]+ [DBIM]+ 2[CDIM]+ 2[BDIM]+ 3[TIM] 2

Iodine utilization factor (IUF, between 0 and 1) is defined as the ratio of the molar
concentration of iodine incorporated into the quantified DBPs to the initial molar concentrations
of iodine, as shown in Equation 5.

Text S5. Calculations of theoretical cytotoxicity. The theoretical cytotoxicity assessment was
performed by dividing measured molar concentrations of each group of DBPs by concentrations
(i.e., LC 50 value) determined in toxicological assays and assuming that toxicity is additive
(Yeatts et al. 2010). This approach has been used to assess toxicity of measured DBPs and
evaluate the contribution of individual DBPs to the total DBP-associated toxicity (Krasner et al.
2016, Smith et al. 2010). The LC50 value is the concentration of each individual DBP inducing a
50% reduction in the density of Chinese Hamster Ovary cells for 72h (Wagner and Plewa 2017).
The LC 50 values of individual DBPs (THM4, I-THMs, HANs, and HALs) were available in
literature (Wagner and Plewa 2017), which are also presented in the Tables S2.

Experimental conditions: [DOC] = 1.0 mg C/L, [HOCl]0 or [NH2Cl]0 = 28 M (2 mg/L as Cl2), [I−]0 = 0.5 M, [Br−]0 = 2.5 M, pH= 6.0-9.0, T =21±1 C, reaction time = 24 h. For NH2Cl process, preformed NH2Cl was used. For Cl2-NH2Cl process, after 2-30 min chlorination, reaction solutions were quenched with NH4Cl (5 times of [HOCl]0).
