What are the Observed Effects of Nanoparticles on Daphnia?
The effects of nanoparticles on Daphnia can vary depending on the type, size, and concentration of the nanoparticles. Commonly observed effects include physical damage to tissues, oxidative stress, and disruptions in metabolic processes. Some studies have also reported bioaccumulation of nanoparticles in Daphnia, which can have cascading effects on the food chain.
