“…Once released into the environment, nanoparticles can also adsorb naturally occurring biomacromolecules such as secreted proteins and polysaccharides onto their surface: namely, an eco-corona formation . The presence of an eco-corona can alter the surface properties and aggregation state of nanoparticles in the aquatic environment, , as well as alter their ecotoxicity. , However, there is a paucity of literature reporting on the properties, patterns, and mechanisms of competitive formation of an eco-corona on multiple ENPs or formation of mixtures of individual ENP-eco-corona complexes.…”

The rapid development of nanomaterials (NMs) and the emergence of new multicomponent NMs will inevitably lead to simultaneous exposure of organisms to multiple engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) at varying exposure levels. Understanding the joint impacts of multiple ENPs and predicting the toxicity of mixtures of ENPs are therefore evidently of importance. We reviewed the toxicity of mixtures of ENPs to a variety of different species, covering algae, bacteria, daphnia, fish, fungi, insects, and plants. Most studies used the independent-action (IA)-based model to assess the type of joint effects. Using co-occurrence networks, it was revealed that 53% of the cases with specific joint response showed antagonistic, 25% synergistic, and 22% additive effects. The combination of nCuO and nZnO exhibited the strongest interactions in each type of joint interaction. Compared with other species, plants exposed to multiple ENPs were more likely to experience antagonistic effects. The main factors influencing the joint response type of the mixtures were (1) the chemical composition of individual components in mixtures, (2) the stability of suspensions of mixed ENPs, (3) the type and trophic level of the individual organisms tested, (4) the biological level of organization (population, communities, ecosystems), (5) the exposure concentrations and time, (6) the endpoint of toxicity, and (7) the abiotic field conditions (e.g., pH, ionic strength, natural organic matter). This knowledge is critical in developing efficient strategies for the assessment of the hazards induced by combined exposure to multiple ENPs in complex environments. In addition, this knowledge of the joint effects of multiple ENPs assists in the effective prediction of hybrid NMs.

“…The Daphnia magna which is also called the filter feeder is known to consume different particles such as inorganic, organic, algae, and bacteria which gave them the capability of filtering much quantity of water [82,128]. The Daphnia magna for example shows an increase in the rate of mortality after increasing the exposure concentration of TiO2 nanoparticles [129]. However, the Daphnia magna exposure to copper (Cu) related nanoparticles revealed that the chemistry of the water and the sizes are determinant factors in the natural freshwater toxicity [130].…”

Globally nanotechnology has transformed many sectors of human endeavour due to the innovative introduction of different unique materials and products in various areas. Presently large quantities of nanomaterials are synthesized and are essential for several industrial applications. This facilitates and enhances research in biophysics, biochemistry, wastewater treatment, etc. Nanotechnology and other science-related discipline have been combined to synthesize novel nanomaterials through modification of their shapes, composition, and dimension which can be used for various applications in medicines, agriculture, environmental remediation, etc. Despite their peculiar advantages and wide application in several industrials and domestic sectors, fabricated materials of nano-size scale have been raising concerns of unsafety for both human and aquatic biota, due to their incessant release into the aquatic ecosystem. These nanomaterials are ingested by the aquatic biota, from which they bioaccumulate in the organism’s body and hence pass to humans via the food chain. Within the organism’s body, nanomaterials serve as foreign material with different physicochemical characteristics because of their peculiar small sizes. Thus, the harmful effect of nanomaterials on aquatic biota has been generating great concern among the scientific communities. Thus, they can interfere with the normal mechanisms of physiological activities. The present chapter focuses on the sources of the nanomaterials in the aquatic ecosystem, the route of exposure, their process of transformation and interactions, their possible toxicity to the aquatic biota, challenges posed by the nanomaterials, and prospects.
