The present review covers developments in studies of nanomaterials (NMs) in the
environment since our much cited review in 2008. We discuss novel insights into fate and …

Zeta potential (ZP) is a parameter that expresses the electrochemical equilibrium between
particles and liquids like in nanoparticle (NP) colloidal solutions with applications in …

Uptake, transport and toxicity of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) into plant cells are
complex processes that are currently still not well understood. Parts of this problem are the …

Titanium dioxide is a common additive in many food, personal care, and other consumer
products used by people, which after use can enter the sewage system and, subsequently …

There has been great interest in the use of carbon nano-materials (CNMs) in agriculture.
However, the existing literature reveals mixed effects from CNM exposure on plants, ranging …

Since the late 1990s, the use of nano zero valent iron (nZVI) for groundwater remediation
has been investigated for its potential to reduce subsurface contaminants such as PCBs …

Published literature has been reviewed in order to (a) explore the (potential) applications of
nanotechnology in pesticide formulation,(b) identify possible impacts on environmental fate …

The ever-increasing use of engineered nanomaterials will lead to heightened levels of these
materials in the environment. The present review aims to provide a comprehensive overview …

Although humans have been exposed to airborne nanosized particles (NSPs;< 100 nm)
throughout their evolutionary stages, such exposure has increased dramatically over the last …

The recent advances in nanotechnology and the corresponding increase in the use of
nanomaterials in products in every sector of society have resulted in uncertainties regarding …
