  1. Chemical stability of metallic nanoparticles: A parameter controlling their potential cellular toxicity in vitro

    Envir Pollut 157(4):7 (2009) PMID 19013699

    The level of production of nanoparticles will inevitably lead to their appearance in air, water, soils, and organisms. A theoretical framework that relates properties of nanoparticles to their biological effects is needed to identify possible risks to human health and the environment. This paper cons...

    Cu is a major active component in anti-fouling paints, which may reach toxic levels in areas with intense boat traffic and therefore is a metal of environmental concern. The bioavailability of metals is influenced by factors such as salinity and organic matter measured as total organ...
  3. Nanoparticle analysis and characterization methodologies in environmental risk assessment of engineered nanoparticles.

    Ecotoxicology 17(5):344-61 (2008) PMID 18483764

    Environmental risk assessments of engineered nanoparticles require thorough characterization of nanoparticles and their aggregates. Furthermore, quantitative analytical methods are required to determine environmental concentrations and enable both effect and exposure assessments. Many methods still...
