Microbial Uptake, Toxicity, and Fate of Biofabricated ZnS:Mn Nanocrystals.

Despite their importance in nano-environmental health and safety, interactions between engineered nanomaterials and microbial life remain poorly characterized. Here, we used the model organism E. coli to study the penetration requirements, subcellular localization, induction of stress responses, and...
