Polystyrene (PS) often found in the ocean is one of the most commonly used plastic
polymers in the world and can exist in different particle sizes. In particular, PS degrades …

Nanoplastics (NPs) may act as carriers of heavy metals and cause complex toxicity to
aquatic organisms, while the exact role of NPs in the joint toxicity remains unclear. Here, we …

The increasing presence of pollutants such as engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) and
nanoplastics (NPLs) poses potential risks to the marine environment. However, there is a …

Micro-and nano-plastics (MNPs) are increasingly prevalent pollutants in marine ecosystems
and result in various deleterious effects on marine organisms. There have been studies …

Metal-based nanoparticles (NPs) are the most widely used engineered nanomaterials. The
individual toxicities of metal-based NPs have been plentifully studied. However, the mixture …

Besides their economic value, engineered inorganic nanoparticles (EINPs) may pose a risk
for the integrity of ecosystems. Among EINPs, titanium dioxide (nTiO 2) is frequently used …

Recently, research on the biological effects of nanoplastics has grown exponentially.
However, studies on the effects of nanoplastics on freshwater organisms and the …

Due to growing production and use, release of nanoparticles (NPs) into the aquatic
environment may pose a hazard to ecosystem. In this study, Microcystis aeruginosa was …

Exopolymeric substances (EPS) have an important role in bioaccumulation and toxicity of
nanoparticles (NPs) to algae, which warrants specific studies. The interaction of EPS with …

Little is known about the potential ecotoxicity of engineered nanoparticles (NPs) to aquatic
organisms. To carefully address this issue, we conducted a comprehensive toxicity …
