• The impact of iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles on the soil bacterial community (2011, background): “…et al. 2007; Liu et al. 2009), graphene-based nanomaterials (Hu et al. 2010), iron-based nanoparticles (Auffan et al. 2008), silver (Sondi and Salopek-Sondi 2004) and copper, zinc and titanium oxide nanoparticles (Kasemets et al. 2009), have been reported toxic effects on pure cultures of bacteria.”
• Evaluation of Copper Oxide Nanoparticles Toxicity Using Chlorophyll a Fluorescence Imaging in Lemna gibba (2010, result): “In some studies, it has been suggested for induced toxicity to be due to the dissolved ionic copper fraction [36, 41] while in other reports it has been indicated that ionic copper alone does not explain toxicity induced by CuO NPs [42, 43].”
• Ecotoxicity of manufactured ZnO nanoparticles--a review. (2013, background): “ZnO NPs (50e70 nm) showed comparable toxicity to the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as bulk ZnO, with 24-h EC50s of 131 and 158 mg/l, respectively (Kasemets et al., 2009).”
• Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles for Selective Destruction of Tumor Cells and Potential for Drug Delivery Applications (2010, background): “Studies have recorded some degree of toxicity from ZnO nanoparticles in a wide array of organisms, including bacteria, macroalgae, yeast, protozoa, zebrafish and mice [44-47].”

• Comparative environmental fate and toxicity of copper nanomaterials (2017, background): “, 2007), while 24-h EC50 ranges from 30 μg/L to 126 mg/L across several organisms (Blinova et al., 2010; Mortimer et al., 2011; Kasemets et al., 2009; Mortimer et al., 2010; Jo et al., 2012).”
• Effect of nanoparticles on crops and soil microbial communities (2018, background): “…yeasts, bacteria, fungi, marine diatom (Thalassiosira weissflogii, Chlamydomonas), and fish (zebrafish) and may also pose risks to human health (Kim et al. 2007, 2008; Panyala et al. 2008; Griffitt et al. 2009; Karlsson et al. 2009; Kasemets et al. 2009; Miao et al. 2009; Saison et al. 2010).”
