• Insignificant acute toxicity of TiO2 nanoparticles to willow trees (2009, background): “Accordingly, damaging effects of TiO2 nanoparticles have been observed on algae, daphnids (Hund-Rinke and Simon 2006) and bacteria (Adams et al. 2006) to be enhanced by sunlight or UV illumination.”
• Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Antimicrobial Activity and Food Packaging Applications (2012, methodology): “However, the increased sensitivity of S. aureus to ZnO nanoparticles has also been reported (Adams et al., 2006; Premanathan et al., 2011; Reddy et al., 2007; Sawai, 2003).”
• Bacterial toxicity comparison between nano- and micro-scaled oxide particles. (2009, background): “TiO2 NPs did not affect bacterial populations, which was different from the results of previous studies (Fu et al, 2005; Adams et al., 2006).”
• Antimicrobial nanomaterials for water disinfection and microbial control: potential applications and implications. (2008, background): “ZnO nanoparticles exhibit strong antibacterial activities on a broad spectrum of bacteria (Sawai, 2003; Adams et al., 2006; Jones et al., 2008; Huang et al., 2008a).”
• Nanostructured zinc oxide for water treatment (2012, background): “Intensive research over the past decade for its implementation in the purification of drinking water can be found in the literature [2, 24-41].”
• Ecotoxicity of manufactured ZnO nanoparticles--a review. (2013, background): “This particle dissolution and the high toxicity of dissolved zinc ions often explain why ZnO has been found to be the most toxic compared with other metal oxide NPs (e.g., TiO2, SiO2, CuO, etc.) (Adams et al., 2006; Aruoja et al., 2009; Brunner et al., 2006).”
