Toxicity of Ag, CuO and ZnO nanoparticles to selected environmentally relevant test organisms and mammalian cells in vitro: a critical review (2013, background): “That is coherent with the results by Fabrega et al. (2011) showing that in high ionic strength suspensions uncoated Ag NPs tend to precipitate and sediment within a few”
Nanomaterials as Sorbents to Remove Heavy Metal Ions in Wastewater Treatment (2012, background): “Nanosized metals or metal oxides include nanosized silver nanoparticles [32], ferric oxides [33], manganese oxides [34], titanium oxides [35], magnesium oxides [19], copper oxides [36], cerium oxides [37], and so on, all these provide high surface area and specific affinity.”
Mechanisms of Silver Nanoparticle Release, Transformation and Toxicity: A Critical Review of Current Knowledge and Recommendations for Future Studies and Applications (2013, background): “However, the concentration and form of nanomaterials in the environment are difficult to quantify and methodological progress is needed, although sophisticated exposure models show that predicted environmental concentrations (PECs) for Ag NPs in different environmental compartments are at the range ”
The Toxicity of Silver Nanoparticles (AgNPs) to Three Freshwater Invertebrates With Different Life Strategies: Hydra vulgaris, Daphnia carinata, and Paratya australiensis (2018, background): “There are several known and unknown hurdles in evaluating the toxicity of NPs (Fabrega et al., 2011; Kumar et al., 2017) and the reported recommendation values for the protection of aquatic species in the literature vary greatly (USEPA, 1985, 2012; Fabrega et al.”
Silver nanoparticles in soil–plant systems (2013, background): “Though incineration of annually produced sewage sludge is performed (Gottschalk et al. 2009) but in countries such as the United Kingdom and United States, a large proportion of such wastes is used as a fertilizer in agricultural soil (Nicholson et al. 2003) which in turn may act as major sources of”
Zinc oxide nanoparticle-mediated changes in photosynthetic efficiency and antioxidant system of tomato plants (2018, methodology): “…refers to the study of material features, such as its composition, structure, and various properties (physical, electrical, magnetic, etc.) There is a number of techniques which are used in the process of characterization, such as separation, microscopy, spectroscopy, etc. (Fabrega et al. 2011).”
