Evaluation of distribution, chemical speciation, and toxic effects of CuO and ZnO nanoparticles in Daphnia magna and Danio rerio
Joyce Ribeiro Santos Rasera
Abstract:The use of products with nanoparticles has been growing in recent years. Currently, there is the application of nutrients in nanoparticulate form in agriculture. With this growth, it is important to safely expand their use and assess the environmental risk caused by them, as discharges may occur near water flows. In this work, the toxicity, distribution, concentration and chemical speciation of CuO and ZnO nanoparticles in ecotoxicology model organisms, Daphnia magna and Danio rerio were evaluated.
