Development of traceable metal oxide nanoparticles for examining environmental fate and transport

Creator:

Rowbotham, Brian

Abstract:

The fate and transport of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) such as titanium dioxide (TiO₂) are of concern due to their increasing use in consumer products. Although analytical methods for detection and quantification of ENPs in environmental matrices are being developed, these methods are difficult, time consuming, and not easily validated for...
