The oxidized state of the nanocomposite Carbo-Iron® causes no adverse effects on growth, survival and differential gene expression in zebrafish

The ecotoxic potential of a new zero-valent iron nanomaterial, designed for the elimination of halogenated pollutants, and its effect on reductive dechlorinating microbial communities

“…Especially, for oxidized iron nanomaterials Weil et al (2015) showed no toxicity to the fish Danio rerio in a concentration up to 100 mg/L. This results is comparable to our research.…”

Metal uptake and distribution in the zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryo: differences between nanoparticles and metal ions

“…For each salt, stock solutions in deionized water were prepared, which were further diluted to the respective test concentrations in ISO water. 30 For CuSO 4 •5H 2 O, the stock concentration was 2 g l −1 , for AgNO 3 100 mg l −1 and for ZnSO 4 •7H 2 O 426 mg l −1 .…”

“…ref. [1][2][3][4]. The ZFE as a vertebrate model species combines advantages such as rapid development and transparency of embryos and is considered as an alternative model to animals for testing.…”

Evaluation of the detoxication efficiencies for acrylonitrile wastewater treated by a combined anaerobic oxic-aerobic biological fluidized tank (A/O-ABFT) process: Acute toxicity and zebrafish embryo toxicity

“…The possible reason was that the intact chorion could protect the zebrafish embryo from the toxicants in the wastewater (Hassan et al, 2008;Ruyra et al, 2013). In zebrafish embryos, pore channels (500-700 nm) in the three-layered chorion could act as an efficient barrier against the uptake of particles into the embryo (Felix et al, 2013;Weil et al, 2015). Shang and Zhdanova found that an intact chorion could protected the zebrafish embryos from cocaine (Shang and Zhdanova, 2007).…”
