Increasing use of metal and metal oxide nanoparticles [Me (O) NPs] in products means
many will inevitably find their way into marine systems. Their likely fate here is sedimentation …

Due to the continuous development and production of manufactured nanomaterials or
nanoparticles (NPs), their uptake and effects in the aquatic biota represent a major concern …

The development of nanotechnology will inevitably lead to the release of consistent amounts
of nanomaterials (NMs) and nanoparticles (NPs) into marine ecosystems. Ecotoxicological …

We tested whether three commercial forms (uncoated, organic coating, and iron oxide
coating) of nano zero-valent iron (nZVI) are toxic to freshwater and marine organisms …

The potential release of nanoparticles (NPs) into aquatic environments represents a growing
concern for their possible impact on aquatic organisms. In this light, exposure studies during …

Catastrophic oil spills and oil from waste waters such as bilge and fracking waters pose
major environmental concerns. The limitations of existing cleanup techniques for benign oil …

Synthetic zero-valent nano-iron (nZVI) compounds are finding numerous applications in
environmental remediation owing to their high chemical reactivity and versatile catalytic …

Sediment tends to accumulate inorganic and persistent hydrophobic organic contaminants
representing one of the main sinks and sources of pollution. Generally, contaminated …

Bisphenol A (BPA), a monomer used in plastic manufacturing, is weakly estrogenic and a
potential endocrine disruptor in mammals. Although it degrades quickly, it is pseudo …

With increasing production from nanotechnology industries, nanomaterials are inevitably
released into the aquatic environment, thereby posing a potential risk to aquatic organisms …
