Metal-containing engineered nanoparticles (Me-ENPs) are used in a wide range of products
including inks, plastics, personal care products, clothing and electronic devices. The release …

This paper reviews dietborne toxicity of 13 metals (Ag, Al, As, B, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Mo, Ni, Pb,
V, Zn) to aquatic biota. Of those, Ag, As, Cd, Cu, Ni, and Zn have caused dietborne toxicity in …

Bioaccumulation potential in aquatic biota is typically expressed using ratios of chemical
concentrations in organism tissue (typically whole body) relative to chemical exposure …

The topic of this work was based on the assessment of aquatic systems quality related to the
persistent metal pollution. The use of aquatic organisms as bioindicators of metal pollution …

Surface sediments can provide useful information on the recent pollution status of an
estuary. One recent field survey was carried out in the Pearl River Estuary (PRE), South …

The objective of this paper is to synthesize results from seven published research papers
employing different experimental approaches to evaluate the fate of metal-based …

When I first started out working in this field, I participated in a series of conferences in the
1970s and 1980s, organized by John and Winona Vernberg of the University of South …

Cadmium sulfide (CdS) quantum dots are widely used in medical imaging. The aim of this
study was to examine toxicity effects of CdS engineered nanoparticles (CdS NPs) compared …

In this study, spatial and seasonal dynamics of trace elements (Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd, As) in water
and sediments were examined in the Pearl River Estuary (PRE), South China. The spatial …

This up-to-date compilation from international experts covers the tolerance of living
organisms to toxic contaminants. It examines the degree of generalization of tolerance at …
