This project aims to understand the ecological effects of engineered nanoparticles on microbial communities. By integrating molecular biology and ecotoxicology, it seeks to assess how these particles influence ecosystem functions and resilience in both aquatic and soil environments.
Nanotechnology is already used in a huge variety of applications with a resulting potential environmental exposure.
However, we are still lacking sound scientific knowledge on the ecological consequences for natural environmental systems of exposure to man-made nanoparticles (NPs).
While standard ecotoxicity tests can be modified for hazard assessment of such NPs, the tests and therefore the conclusions address the wrong endpoints such as high-dose effects on survival and reproduction.
