Nitrogen Forms and Concentration Influence the Impact of Titanium dioxide Nanoparticles on the Biomass and Antioxidant Enzyme Activities of Microcystis aeruginosa
Abstract:The popularity of Nanoparticles (NPs) have led to their wide production, applications and subsequently released into the aquatic environment in some instances. In the aquatic ecosystem, these NPs affect different populations of photosynthesizing organisms, such as cyanobacteria. The effect of Microcystis aeruginosa exposed to titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2-NPs, 48 mg l− 1), in combination of low and high concentrations of urea (0.04 mM) and nitrate (9 Mm) was assessed. Microcystins (MCs) production and r… Show more
