Stability, Bioavailability, and Bacterial Toxicity of ZnO and Iron-Doped ZnO Nanoparticles in Aquatic Media
TL;DR: High-throughput screening was used to elucidate ZnO nanoparticle stability, bioavailability, and antibacterial mechanisms as a function of iron doping level, aquatic chemistry, and bacterial cell type, and results underscore the complexities and challenges regulators face in assessing potential environmental impacts of nanotechnology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of soil bacteria susceptible to TiO2 and ZnO nanoparticles.
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that some metal oxide nanoparticles could affect soil bacterial communities and associated processes through effects on susceptible, narrow-function bacterial taxa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of morphology of ZnO nanostructures on their toxicity to marine algae
TL;DR: The overall results suggest that toxicity studies assessing the effects of nanoparticles on aquatic organisms need to consider both the dissolution of these particles and the cellular interaction of nanoparticle aggregates.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
