Evaluation of platinum nanoparticles ecotoxicity using representatives of distinct trophic levels of aquatic biocenosis.
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to clarify the influence of three different sizes of platinum nanoparticles on aquatic ecosystem and assess the toxic effect in term of particle size. Tests were conducted on organisms representing all trophic levels of the aquatic ecosystem, namely producers (duckweed Lemna minor), consumers (water.....
