Nanocellulose enhances the dispersion and toxicity of ZnO NPs to green algae Eremosphaera viridis
Abstract
The presence of nanocellulose reduces the aggregation of ZnO NPs and enhances the bio-uptake of Zn ions to algal cells.
The widespread cellulose nanomaterials from industrial production and natural plant degradation inevitably lead to the accumulation of nanocellulose in the aquatic environment. However, the effect of nanocellulose on the fate, transport and biotoxicity of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) remains largely unexplored. The …
