The impact of silver nanoparticles on plant physiology
… community structure. cAg NPs demonstrated varied toxicity towards plants and the associated soil microbes. Whilst the aquatic plants and soil microbial communities investigated in this study were not affected by cAg NPs up to 100 mg/L, for the terrestrial plants evaluated here, cAg NPs above 12 …

Assessing the Effects of Chronic Neonicotinoid Insecticide Exposure on Aquatic Insects using Multiple Experimental Approaches
… in non-target insect biodiversity. The lack of toxicological data evaluating the effects of neonicotinoids restricts the ability of regulators to adequately protect sensitive insects particularly those with aquatic larval stages. Many Prairie wetlands are in regions of intensive agriculture and …
