Graphene oxide-silver nanoparticle hybrid material: an integrated nanosafety study in zebrafish embryos.

This work reports an integrated nanosafety study including the synthesis and characterization of the graphene oxide-silver nanoparticle hybrid material (GO-AgNPs) and its nano-ecotoxicity evaluation in the zebrafish embryo model. The influences of natural organic matter (NOM) and a chorion embryo membrane were considered in this study, looking towards more environmentally realistic scenarios and standardized nanotoxicity testing. The nanohybrid was successfully synthesized using the NaBH aqueous method, and AgNPs (~ 5.

Developmental toxicity potential of paclobutrazol in the rat.

Paclobutrazol is used as a fungicide and as a plant growth regulator, but there are few studies about its potential toxic effects. Experiments were conducted to determine whether this compound has adverse effects on the reproduction and development of offspring. The influence of 1.
