Ecotoxicity of engineered nanomaterials and the pathway of toxic effects in an environmental model, Caenorhabditis elegans
This thesis examined the adverse effects of engineered nanomaterials (NMs) and their potential mechanisms of toxicity. The research focussed on the toxicity of NMs and their dissolved ions, as well as bulk particles (larger size), if applicable, in the nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans. The physicoch...
