Exposure media and nanoparticle size influence on the fate, bioaccumulation, and toxicity of silver nanoparticles to higher plant salvinia minima

Author: Thwala, Melusi ; Klaine, S ; Musee, N Date: Apr 2021 Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are favoured antibacterial agents in nano-enabled products and can be released into water resources where they potentially elicit adverse effects. Herein, interactions of 10 and 40 nm AgNPs (10-AgNPs and 40-AgNPs) ... Read more
Interactions of metal-based engineered nanoparticles with aquatic higher plants: A review of state of current knowledge

Author: Thwala, Melusi ; Klaine, SJ ; Musee, N Date: Jan 2016 The rising potential for the release of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) into aquatic environments requires evaluation of risks in order to protect ecological health. The present review examined knowledge pertaining the interactions of metal-based ... Read more
The oxidative toxicity of Ag and ZnO nanoparticles towards the aquatic plant Spirodela punctuta and the role of testing media parameters

Author: Thwala, Melusi ; Musee, N ; Sikhwivhilu, L ; Wepener, V Date: Sep 2013 The toxicity effects of silver (nAg) and zinc oxide (nZnO) engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) on the duckweed Spirodela punctuta were studied to investigate the potential risks posed by these ENPs towards higher aquatic plants. The influence of ... Read more
