Natural Organic Matter Reduces Aquatic Toxicity of Nanoparticles - AZoNano

Researchers investigated the influence of natural organic matter on the trophic transfer, toxicity, and bioaccumulation of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs).

Although the effect of natural organic matter (NOM) on nanoparticles (NPs) in the food chain is unexplored, studies have found that NOM present in aquatic environments affects the toxicity and behavi… [+5487 chars]
