Interaction of silver nanoparticles with algae and fish cells: a side by side comparison

Kristin Schirmer, Laura Sigg, Renata Behra, Yang Yue, Xiaomei Li

Background: Silver nanoparticles (AgNP) are widely applied and can, upon use, be released into the aquatic environment. This raises concerns about potential impacts of AgNP on aquatic organisms. We here present a side by side comparison of the interaction ...

Silver nanoparticle-protein interactions in intact rainbow trout gill cells

Kristin Schirmer, Laura Sigg, Renata Behra, Yang Yue

Upon contact with biota, nanoparticles can bind to proteins, which coat the nanoparticles and form a nanoparticle-protein corona. Knowledge of corona proteins is therefore important for a mechanistic understanding of how nanoparticles interact with biomole ...

Silver nanoparticles inhibit fish gill cell proliferation in protein-free culture medium

Kristin Schirmer, Laura Sigg, Renata Behra, Yang Yue

While short-term exposures of vertebrate cells, such as from fish, can be performed in defined, serum-free media, long-term cultures generally require addition of growth factors and proteins, normally supplied with a serum supplement. However, proteins are ...

Toxicity of silver nanoparticles to a fish gill cell line: Role of medium composition

Kristin Schirmer, Laura Sigg, Renata Behra, Yang Yue

In aqueous solutions, silver nanoparticle (AgNP) behavior is affected by a variety of factors which lead to altered AgNP size and toxicity. Our research aims to explore the effect of media composition on citrate-coated AgNP (cit-AgNP) behavior and toxicity ...

Chemical Aspects of Nanoparticle Ecotoxicology

Kristin Schirmer, Laura Sigg, Renata Behra, Hannah Inka Schug, Yang Yue

Nanoecotoxicology strives to understand the processes and mechanisms by which engineered nanoparticles (ENP) may exert toxic effects on aquatic organisms. Detailed knowledge of the chemical reactions of nanoparticles in the media and of their interactions ...
