In this study, we investigated the interaction of nanoparticles, such as CdSe/ZnS quantum
dots (QDs), with the marine diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum and the green alga …

Given the research and applications of carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) in various fields, the
safety of CNMs has attracted significant attention. As with any pollutant, the separation and …

The ever-increasing production and use of nanocrystaline semiconductors (Quantum dots;
QDs) will inevitably result in increased appearance of these nanomaterials in the aquatic …

Biodistribution and biomodification of iron oxide (Fe 3 O 4 and α-Fe 2 O 3) nanoparticles
(NPs) in a well-known toxicity test organism, Daphnia magna (D. magna), were investigated …

Here, gum arabic (GA) microgel in 5–50 μm size range was used as a template for in situ
quantum dot (QD) preparation. The in situ synthesis of metal sulfide quantum dots (QDs) …
