A comprehensive assessment of the environmental risks posed by engineered
nanomaterials (ENMs) entering the environment is necessary, due in part to the recent …

Predictions of environmental concentrations of engineered nanomaterials (ENM) are
needed for their environmental risk assessment. Because analytical data on ENM …

Over the past few years, engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) have penetrated nearly every
sector of modern life and their broad-scale use is steadily and rapidly increasing. The …

The production and use of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) inevitably leads to their release
into aquatic environments, with the quantities involved expected to increase significantly in …

Due to their high surface area to volume ratio, nanomaterials (NMs) have a high surface
energy that they seek to lower by binding to available macromolecules from their …

Many studies have examined metallic nanoparticles (NPs) produced according to the
principles of green chemistry. Gold NPs have drawn much more attention than other metallic …

Gold nanoparticles (AuNP) possess unique characteristics that render them adequate for
applications and also to be used as a model NP to evaluate the fate and behavior at low NP …

Standardized methods for assessing the behaviour of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs)
under relevant environmental conditions are an important part of ENM risk assessment …
