Název v původním jazyce

Nanotoxicity of agrochemicals to aquatic environment

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

As a result of the runoff losses of agrochemicals that have been used in excessive amounts over the last few decades from agricultural soils, the levels of these harmful chemicals have also increased in the aquatic ecosystem, where adverse impact on nontarget organisms has been observed. The advantage of using nanoagrochemicals compared to conventional ones is that to achieve the same biological effect, a quantitatively smaller amount of active ingredient can be used, and when using encapsulation of the active agent or its adsorption on a suitable nanocarrier, its controlled prolonged release can be achieved, which at the same time reduces the adverse impact on the environment. Nanoagrochemicals are also generally less toxic than conventional agrochemicals, however, some of them can be more toxic to aquatic flora and fauna even at sublethal concentrations. This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of the toxic effects of nanoscale formulations of organic pesticides, carbon nanomaterials (graphene [GR], GR oxide [GO], reduced GO, and carbon nanotubes), nanoscale macronutrients, and Cu, Zn, and Fe-based micronutrients, as well as silver and silica nanoparticles on algae and cyanobacteria, macrophytes, and aquatic animals (mainly crustaceans, snails, bivalves, amphibians or fishes). It also explores the relevant mechanisms of action.
