Nanoparticle Transport and Bioaccumulation in Ecosystems.

Submission Abstract:

This topic delves into how nanoparticles move through and accumulate in various environmental compartments, such as water, soil, air, and biological organisms. As nanoparticles are increasingly used in industrial processes, medicine, agriculture, and consumer products, they inevitably make their way into ecosystems, where they can interact with plants, animals, and microorganisms. Understanding the pathways and mechanisms of nanoparticle transport, as well as their potential for bioaccumulation and biomagnification in food webs, is crucial for assessing their long-term ecological impacts. This topic aims to explore the behavior of nanoparticles in different environmental matrices, factors influencing their mobility and bioavailability, and the potential risks associated with their accumulation in biological tissues.
