The effects of engineered coatings and natural organic matter on nanoparticle aggregation

Creator:

McDowell, Shannon A.

Abstract:

In order to better predict the aggregation state of nanomaterials, the factors that influence aggregation must be understood. The combined effects of natural and engineered coatings have been shown to factor into nanoparticle aggregation behavior in preliminary research. In this study, aggregation behaviors of gold nanoparticles with two different engineered...

Effects of silver ions and nanoparticles on suspended cells and biofilms of Nitrosomonas europaea

Creator:

Barker, Leila Kelly

Abstract:

Silver nanoparticles are increasingly being incorporated into consumer products due to their broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties. The resulting influx of silver nanoparticles into wastewater may pose a threat to bacteria involved in biological wastewater treatment. Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria, which convert ammonia to nitrite in the first step of nitrification, are highly sensitive...
