Synthesis methods influence characteristics, behaviour and toxicity of bare CuO NPs compared to bulk CuO and ionic Cu after in vitro exposure of Ruditapes philippinarum hemocytes
Moritz Volland,Miriam Hampel,Alberto Katsumiti,María Pilar Yeste,José M. Gatica,Miren P. Cajaraville,Julián Blasco +6 more
TL;DR: It is found that the synthesis method can influence particle characteristics and behaviour, as well as the toxicity of CuO NPs to Ruditapes philippinarum hemocytes, and various differences in the aggregation and dissolution kinetics ofCuO particles under environmental (marine) and cell culture exposure conditions are highlighted.

A rapid screening assay for identifying mycobacteria targeted nanoparticle antibiotics
Samantha Donnellan,Lang Tran,Helinor Jane Johnston,Joyce McLuckie,Karen Stevenson,Vicki Stone +5 more
TL;DR: A rapid, low-cost assay which can be used for screening the antimicrobial properties of compounds against pathogenic mycobacteria and to assess the toxicity of three NP against a green fluorescent protein reporter strain of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecotoxicological characteristics and ecological risk assessment of trace elements in the bottom sediments of the Rożnów reservoir (Poland).
TL;DR: The correlation analysis and PCA results showed that trace elements that originated from similar sources were associated to the toxicity of sediments towards T. platyurus, while ecotoxicity for plants could not be explained by the content of trace elements in bottom sediments.

Nanotoxicology: An Emerging Discipline Evolving from Studies of Ultrafine Particles
TL;DR: Results of older bio-kinetic studies with NSPs and newer epidemiologic and toxicologic studies with airborne ultrafine particles can be viewed as the basis for the expanding field of nanotoxicology, which can be defined as safety evaluation of engineered nanostructures and nanodevices.

Probing the Cytotoxicity Of Semiconductor Quantum Dots.
TL;DR: This work found that CdSe-core QDs were indeed acutely toxic under certain conditions and modulated by processing parameters during synthesis, exposure to ultraviolet light, and surface coatings, and suggests that cytotoxicity correlates with the liberation of free Cd2+ ions due to deterioration of the Cd Se lattice.
