TiO2 nanoparticles are phototoxic to marine phytoplankton.

TiO2 nanoparticles are phototoxic to marine phytoplankton.

Nanoparticulate titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) is highly photoactive, and its function as a photocatalyst drives much of the application demand for TiO(2). Because TiO(2) generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) when exposed to ultraviolet radiation (UVR), nanoparticulate TiO(2) has been used in antibacte...
