Chronic effects of TiO2 and ZnO nanoparticles to earthworm Eisenia fetida

The present study focuses on the effects of TiO2 and ZnO nanoparticles to the earthworm, Eisenia fetida. Upon 48 h of exposure of earthworms to TiO2/ ZnO nanoparticles in filter paper (0.1, 1, 10, 100, 500, 1000 mg L−1), no acute toxicity was evidenced. Two soil types (sandy loam soil and clay loam...
