Muted responses to Ag accumulation by plankton to chronic and pulse exposure to silver nanoparticles in a boreal lake

Muted responses to Ag accumulation by plankton to chronic and pulse exposure to silver nanoparticles in a boreal lake

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are an emerging class of contaminants with the potential to impact ecosystem structure and function. AgNPs are antimicrobial, suggesting that microbe-driven ecosystem functions may be particularly vulnerable to AgNP exposure. Predicting the environmental impacts of AgNPs...
