Journal ArticleDOI
Daphnia magna mortality when exposed to titanium dioxide and fullerene (C60) nanoparticles
TL;DR: The main objective was to assess the potential impact that nanoparticles may have on release into aquatic environments and to identify the most appropriate nanotechnology to preserve the aquatic environment while advancing medical and environmental technology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pharmaceuticals and personal care products found in the Great Lakes above concentrations of environmental concern.
TL;DR: The concentrations found in this study, and their corresponding risk quotient, indicate a significant threat by PPCPs to the health of the Great Lakes, particularly near shore organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Behavioral and physiological changes in Daphnia magna when exposed to nanoparticle suspensions (titanium dioxide, nano-C60, and C60HxC70Hx).
TL;DR: Exposure to both nano-C60 and C60HxC70Hx suspensions caused hopping frequency and appendage movement to increase, indicating that certain nanoparticle types may have impacts on population and food web dynamics in aquatic systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating the degradation, sorption, and negative mass balances of pharmaceuticals and personal care products during wastewater treatment.

TL;DR: New insights are provided into the fate of PPCPs during CAS wastewater treatment by evaluating the degradation kinetics and sorption and the results may explain the consistent levels of highly degradable P PCPs being emitted from WWTPs worldwide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental concentrations of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor fluoxetine impact specific behaviors involved in reproduction, feeding and predator avoidance in the fish Pimephales promelas (fathead minnow).
TL;DR: Details are provided on how exposures to fluoxetine impact specific fish behaviors and reproduction and that the effects are dose dependent, indicating a dose dependent effect that triggered different responses at lower exposures versus higher exposures or differential impacts of dose depending on brain region.
