Silver Nanoparticle and Ecotoxicology Research Some Uncertainties Mila Tejamaya, PhD Lecturer at Occupational Health and Safety Department Faculty of Public Health University of Indonesia
Why AgNPs are interesting? AgNPs are the most rapidly growing classes of nanoproducts AgNPs has been commercialized, so that the exposure to human and environment is expected silver in nanosize shows unique optical, electrical, magnetic and therapetic properties most of AgNPs applications in range of product are applied to bestow antimicrobial properties http://www.nanotechproject.org/cpi/site/assets/files/3551/chart_5.png
RISK = HAZARD EXPOSURE X HAZARD DRIVEN APPROACH: EXPOSURE DRIVEN APPROACH: Indication of AgNPs (eco)toxicity : Algae Bacteria Daphnia magna Zebrafish Fish Human (Fabrega 2011) AgNPs release from: Textile Paints Washing machine Waste water treatment etc
Complex behavior of AgNPs as source of uncertainties Homo-aggregation Hetero-aggregation Dissolution Shape transformation Other transformation NPs Stability Test (Levard, Hotze et al. 2012)
