Silver nanoparticles are nanoparticles of silver which are in the range of 1 and 100 nm in
size. Silver nanoparticles have unique properties which help in molecular diagnostics, in …

Presently, nanotechnology is a multi-trillion dollar business sector that covers a wide range
of industries, such as medicine, electronics and chemistry. In the current era, the commercial …

It is important to understand where microplastics go in the body of organisms. They can
readily affect target organs and transport microplastic-associated chemicals to humans via …

As a result of the extensive number of applications of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), their
potential impacts, once released into the environment, are of concern. The toxicity of AgNPs …

Silver nanoparticles (AgNP) are likely to enter the aquatic environment because of their
multiple uses. We have examined the short-term toxicity of AgNP and ionic silver (Ag+) to …

The biotic ligand model (BLM) of acute metal toxicity to aquatic organisms is based on the
idea that mortality occurs when the metal—biotic ligand complex reaches a critical …

This study aimed to determine whether the uptake and localization of Ag in zebrafish was
affected by the presence of polyethylene microplastic beads (PE MPBs). Zebrafish were …

In this article we review the biological effects of Al, primarily with respect to the chemical
factors controlling Al bioavailability and toxicity, and how its biological effects are best …

The potential toxicity of nanoparticles is addressed by utilizing a putative attractive model in
developmental biology and genetics: the zebrafish (Danio rerio). Transparent zebrafish …

The use of nanoscale materials is growing exponentially, but there are also concerns about
the environmental hazard to aquatic biota. Metal-containing engineered nanoparticles (NPs) …
