Toxicity of Nanoparticulate Nickel to Aquatic Organisms: Review and Recommendations for Improvement of Toxicity Tests.
Joseph S. Meyer,Tara Lyons-Darden,Emily R. Garman,Elizabeth T. Middleton,Christian E. Schlekat +4 more
TL;DR: It was concluded that nanoparticulate elemental nickel and nickel oxide, which differ in chemical composition, generally did not differ in their toxicity and no evidence suggests that any of the molecular, physiological, and structural mechanisms of nano‐Ni toxicity differ from the general pattern for many metal‐based nanomaterials.

The challenges and the limitations in Life Cycle Impact Assessment for metal oxide nanoparticles, a case study on nano- TiO2
TL;DR: In this article, the authors assess limitations and challenges of the freshwater aquatic ecotoxicity potential evaluation in LCIA phase for ENPs and in particular nanoparticles as n-TiO2.

Zohre Soltani,Rasool Ghorbani,Seyed Aliakbar Hedayati,Hamed Ghafari Farsani,Mohammad Hasan Gerami +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the disruptive effect of Zinc nanoparticles and Zinc sulfate on the hematological indices of Capoeta capoeta gracilis and comparing the severity of two forms of this metal was investigated.

Induction of renal metallothionein expression by nano-zinc in cadmium-treated rats
TL;DR: It is suggested that larger sizes and intensive doses of Zn nanoparticles can upregulate MT expression and coadministration of cadmium with nano-Zn particles could improve the induction of renal metallothionein synthesis.

Nanomaterials in the environment: Behavior, fate, bioavailability, and effects
Stephen J. Klaine,Pedro J. J. Alvarez,Graeme E. Batley,Teresa F. Fernandes,Richard D. Handy,Delina Y. Lyon,Shaily Mahendra,Mike J. McLaughlin,Jamie R. Lead +8 more
TL;DR: This review critiques existing nanomaterial research in freshwater, marine, and soil environments and illustrates the paucity of existing research and demonstrates the need for additional research.

Modeled Environmental Concentrations of Engineered Nanomaterials (TiO2, ZnO, Ag, CNT, Fullerenes) for Different Regions
TL;DR: The results of this study indicate that risks to aquatic organisms may currently emanate from nano- Ag, nano-TiO(2), and nano-ZnO in sewage treatment effluents for all considered regions and for nano-Ag in surface waters.

Cadmium in the environment
TL;DR: In this paper, a review on cadmium in the environment has been performed under a contract between the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Environmental Hygiene of the Karolinska Institute, Sweden.
Journal ArticleDOI
Manufactured nanomaterials (fullerenes, C60) induce oxidative stress in the brain of juvenile largemouth bass.
TL;DR: This is the first study showing that uncoated fullerenes can cause oxidative damage and depletion of GSH in vivo in an aquatic species, and further research needs to be done to evaluate the potential toxicity of manufactured nanomaterials, especially with respect to translocation into the brain.

Metal speciation and bioavailability in aquatic systems
André Tessier,David R. Turner +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the Free-Ion Activity Model (FIAM) was used to model the relationship between trace metals and aquatic organisms, and the results showed that metal toxicity in aquatic organisms can be predicted from bioassays.
