Nanotech means more than miniaturisation

Nanoparticles as environmental cleanup tools
• Fullerene tubes absorb dioxins• Iron nanoparticles catalyze breakdown of
solvents • Currently testing for environmental
remediation of groundwater

Nanoparticles as pollutants-not necessarily a new phenomenon-bringing in a new class of compounds
![Page 6: Rebecca Klaper - OECD](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022080212/62e7f15d27449b49cd2874f0/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Impact of Particles in the Environment
• Toxicity of manufactured nanoparticles• Mechanism of action• Nanoparticles of natural products versus
macroparticles• Will the organisms interact differently with
nanoparticles than larger particles?• Ecosystem impact?
– Bioaccumulation– Fate – Changes in species interactions-behavior
![Page 7: Rebecca Klaper - OECD](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022080212/62e7f15d27449b49cd2874f0/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Manufactured nanoparticles: Traditional Toxicity Tests
• Toxicity tests– Exposure to particles
for 48 hours– Determination of
mortality rate
• Daphnia spp.• Abundant in freshwater • Filter feeders• Crucial to food web
![Page 8: Rebecca Klaper - OECD](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022080212/62e7f15d27449b49cd2874f0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Nanoparticles
• Titanium Dioxide– 10-20nm particles– Conduct charge
efficiently– Photocatalyst for
cancerous tumors
• Fullerenes– ~1nm particles– High electrically affinity– Environmental clean-up– Drug delivery

Effects of Exposure on Behavior
• Video ImagingDaphnia placed in vessel, allowed to acclimate, and then exposed
![Page 12: Rebecca Klaper - OECD](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022080212/62e7f15d27449b49cd2874f0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Why Behavior
• Energetics• More obvious to predator, problems
with mating/feeding etc.• Easy first indicator of response

Environmental Impact of Nanoparticles?
• Depends on type of particle– Mortality differs with particle type and any
changes in side chains (Colvin et al.: Variations in C60 nanocrystal can alter toxic response. )
– Gene expression differs with particle type• Interference with filter feeders
– Future studies behavior and feeding• Ecosystem effects?
![Page 22: Rebecca Klaper - OECD](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022080212/62e7f15d27449b49cd2874f0/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Increasing Investment in Nanotechnology
![Page 23: Rebecca Klaper - OECD](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022080212/62e7f15d27449b49cd2874f0/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Environmental Risk Assessment for Nanoparticles
• Identify potential risks• Exposure – different than macroparticles?
– Routes of exposure– Fate in the environment– Measuring exposure
• Effects – different than macroparticles?– Toxicity testing – different methods?– Ecosystem – bioaccumulation? Changes in
interactions?• Risk management
– Limiting use of certain products– Waste reduction
