Fullerenol, an important water-soluble derivative of fullerene carbon nanomaterial, has been increasingly used in medicine and industry. The presence and release of carbon nanoparticles into the environment have raised concerns over potential impacts on human health and the environment. In this study, the bioaccumulation of fullerenol nanoparticles in wheat was investigated using 13 C-labelling techniques. The dose and time-dependent bioaccumulation of fullerenol in wheat was observed, and most fullerenol (about 85.68-263.86% ID per g, percentage of dose per gram tissue) was found in roots. With prolonged culture times, the seedlings treated with relatively low concentrations of fullerenol nanoparticles (2.5 μg mL −1 ) showed significant increases in 13 C content in roots, while 10.0 μg mL −1 fullerenol appeared to suppress this accumulation. Only very limited amounts (<4.13% ID per g) of fullerenol nanoparticles were translocated from roots to stems and leaves. The presence of fullerenol nanoparticles was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy, and small particles were found in the vascular cylinder of wheat roots. During the incubations with fullerenol nanoparticles at all test concentrations, the biomass gain of stems and leaves was unaffected, while root elongation was promoted. Fullerenol also improved the synthesis of chlorophyll in wheat during the 7 d observation period.Environ. Sci.: Nano This journal isAs an important water-soluble derivative of fullerene carbon nanomaterial, fullerenol has been increasingly used in the field of medicine and in industry, but the environmental impact of fullerenol has seldom been investigated. Herein, the bioaccumulation of fullerenol nanoparticles in wheat was investigated using 13 C-labelling techniques. The dose and time dependent bioaccumulation of fullerenol in wheat was observed, while the majority of particles (about 85.68-263.86% ID per g, percentage of dose per gram tissue) were only found in the roots and very limited amounts (<4.13% ID per g) could translocate from the roots to stems and leaves. Fullerenol promoted root elongation and chlorophyll synthesis.

“…Therefore, a dependence of BAF/BCF on the exposure concentration may be anticipated. Despite these concerns, BAFs, BCFs, and BMFs have been determined experimentally for various NMs including silver , TiO 2 (Zhu et al 2010b;Yeo and Nam 2013), fullerenes (Li et al 2010a), CNTs (Petersen et al 2008a), and gold (Judy et al 2012). Furthermore, use of multiple BAF/BCF values for a specific NM may be recommended because no single BAF/BCF can be used to express bioaccumulation and/or trophic transfer without consideration of the exposure concentration (Chapman et al 1996;DeForest et al 2007).…”

The experimental determination of bioaccumulation is challenging, and a number of approaches have been developed for its prediction. It is important to assess the applicability of these predictive approaches to nanomaterials (NMs), which have been shown to bioaccumulate. The octanol/water partition coefficient (K ) may not be applicable to some NMs that are not found in either the octanol or water phases but rather are found at the interface. Thus the K values obtained for certain NMs are shown not to correlate well with the experimentally determined bioaccumulation. Implementation of quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs) for NMs is also challenging because the bioaccumulation of NMs depends on nano-specific properties such as shape, size, and surface area. Thus there is a need to develop new QSAR models based on these new nanodescriptors; current efforts appear to focus on digital processing of NM images as well as the conversion of surface chemistry parameters into adsorption indices. Water solubility can be used as a screening tool for the exclusion of NMs with short half-lives. Adaptation of fugacity/aquivalence models, which include physicochemical properties, may give some insights into the bioaccumulation potential of NMs, especially with the addition of a biota component. The use of kinetic models, including physiologically based pharmacokinetic models, appears to be the most suitable approach for predicting bioaccumulation of NMs. Furthermore, because bioaccumulation of NMs depends on a number of biotic and abiotic factors, it is important to take these factors into account when one is modeling bioaccumulation and interpreting bioaccumulation results.

“…biofilms were fed to the snail (Kulacki et al, 2012). The transfer of TiO 2 NP from the water phase to biofilm, water dropwort and to its consumer organisms, like nematodes and mud snails, was shown by Yeo and Nam (2013). Mesocosm studies with estuarine sediments and seawater revealed both chemical and biological processes.…”

“…Mesocosm systems representing the combination of different compartments can simulate realistic environmental conditions, while allowing for control of environmental factors. The design of mesocosm studies to investigate the environmental fate and effects of EINP ranges from outdoor and greenhouse containers (Burns et al, 2013;Cleveland et al, 2012;Yeo and Nam, 2013) to recirculating flumes (Battin et al, 2009;Kulacki et al, 2012), and from freshwater (Battin et al, 2009;Kulacki et al, 2012;Lowry et al, 2012a;Yeo and Nam, 2013) to estuarine (Burns et al, 2013;Cleveland et al, 2012) and marine (Buffet et al, 2013;Buffet et al, 2014) systems.…”
