RESPONSE OF SOIL MICROBIAL BIOMASS TO CeO2 NANOPARTICLES

Aim of this work was to assess the impact of the chronic exposure of CeO2 nanoparticles (NPs) (50 to 105 nm nominal size) on soil microbial biomass.To evaluate if the CeO2 NPs can affect the soil quality, they were mixed to an A1 and A2 horizon of Epileptic Cambisols at a concentrations of 100 ppm a...
