Reproductive and whole-body toxicity of Ag-doped and -undoped ZIF-8 nanoparticles and the building blocks: An Artemia-based comparative bioassay.

The present research assessed, for the first time, toxicity of ZIF-8 (1 mg/L) and the building blocks (0.1 mg/L Zn and 0.4 mg/L 2-methylimidazole (2-MIm)), besides that of AgNPs@ZIF-8 (0.

Individual and binary exposure to nanoscales of silver, titanium dioxide, and silicon dioxide alters viability, growth, and reproductive system: Hidden indices to re-establish artemia as a toxicological model in saline waters.

This study evaluated and compared the individual and combined toxicity of AgNPs, TiONPs, and SiONPs to life cycle of A. salina. To this end, both stability and toxicity of AgNPs were determined in the presence of TiONPs and SiONPs.
