Given their demand, the growing occupational and consumer exposure to these materials has warranted an extensive investigation into potential hazards they may pose towards human health. This study utilised both the <em>in vitro</em> mammalian cell gene mutation and the cytokinesis-blocked micronucleus (CBMN) assays to investigate genotoxicity in human lymphoblastoid (TK6) and 16HBE14o<sup>−</sup> human lung epithelial cells, following exposure to NM-400 and NM-401 MWCNTs for 24 h. To evaluate the potential for secondary genotoxicity, the CBMN assay was applied on a co-culture of 16HBE14o<sup>−</sup> with differentiated human monocytic (dTHP-1) cells. In addition, two dispersion methods (NanoGenoTox <em>vs.</em> high shear mixing) were utilised prior to exposures and in acellular experiments to assess the effects on MWCNT oxidative potential, aspect ratio and surface properties. These were characterized <em>in chemico</em> as well as by electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. Structural damage of NM-400 was observed following both dispersion approaches; Raman spectra highlighted greater oxidative transformation under probe sonication as opposed to high shear mixing. Despite the changes to the oxidative potential of the MWCNTs, no statistically significant genotoxicity was observed under the conditions applied. There was also no visible signs of cellular internaliation of NM-400 or NM-401 into either cell type under the test conditions, which may support the negative genotoxic response. Whilst these HARNs may have oxidative potential, cells have natural protective mechanisms for repairing transient DNA damage. Therefore, it is crucial to evaluate biological endpoints which measure fixed DNA damage to account for the impact of DNA repair mechanisms.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18786,"journal":{"name":"NanoImpact","volume":"37 ","pages":"Article 100539"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142882467","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Spanning a variety of ecosystems – from soils and rivers to oceans and polar ice – NPs interact with complex biological and geochemical processes, posing risks to organisms across multiple trophic levels. Despite their growing presence, understanding the behavior, transport, and toxicity of nanoplastics remains challenging due to their diverse physical and chemical properties as well as the heterogeneity of environmental matrices. Currently, nanoplastics are often studied alongside microplastics as a single, homogeneous group, which obscures the nuanced behavior of NPs, particularly in terms of their colloidal properties and interactions within ecosystems. This perspective aims to highlight the critical gaps in nanoplastics research, stressing the importance for field studies and advanced detection/quantification methods to better capture their behavior across environmental interfaces. We advocate for a more integrated approach that account for the dynamic interactions between nanoplastics and surrounding biological, chemical, and physical environments, especially across key ecological gradients. Furthermore, long-term and transgenerational studies are essential to assess the chronic impacts of low-concentration nanoplastics exposure. Innovative and appropriate methodologies are needed to explore NP fate, transport, and toxicity in realistic environmental conditions. By combining advanced experimental tools, field studies, and ecological modeling frameworks, this paper outlines provides a roadmap for advancing our understanding of nanoplastics and their broader ecological impacts, ultimately shaping more effective environmental monitoring and mitigation strategies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18786,"journal":{"name":"NanoImpact","volume":"37 ","pages":"Article 100544"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143029008","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this experiment, the effect of PFAS on the transport of PTFE in porous media under different pH, ionic strength (IS) and ion valence states was studied. The results showed that the recovery rate of PTFE decreased gradually with the decrease of pH and the increase of IS and ion valence states. When the above conditions change, the double electron layer on the microplastic surface is compressed, the absolute value of zeta potential decreases, the repulsion between each other decreases, and aggregation and deposition are more likely. In addition, it was found that the recovery rate of PTFE co-transported with long chain PFOA was higher than that of short chain PFPeA. This phenomenon may be caused by the adhesion ability of PFOA with long carbon chain on the surface of PTFE is greater than that of PFPeA with short carbon chain. On the other hand, PFAS with different carbon chain lengths produce different spatial site resistance effects after binding with particles, and the spatial site resistance produced by the long-chain PFOA is larger than that of the short-chain PFPeA, leading to a decrease in particle-to-particle aggregation and a better transport effect. This study will help to understand the effects of PFAS with different carbon chain lengths on the transport of microplastics in porous media, as well as the transport rule of PTFE under different conditions, and provide reference value for the calculation of its flux in soil.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18786,"journal":{"name":"NanoImpact","volume":"37 ","pages":"Article 100550"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143488925","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The molecular explanation of this was the variational expression levels of genes related to many aspects of biochemical pathways, such as oxidative stress, apoptosis, endoplasmic reticulum stress, fatty acid oxidation, and glucose metabolism. Meanwhile, larvae exposed to PBS, PHA, and PBAT at 100 mg/L showed chaos in circadian behaviors, accompanied by the disturbed expression of clock genes.

This study aimed to develop a Quantitative Structure-Property Relationship (QSPR) model to predict the ion release (in %) of MNPs for different time points and water chemistry conditions. Furthermore, many machine learning models are frequently plagued by a lack of data and recently data augmentation has been suggested as a method to mitigate this issue. Therefore, we also investigated the effects of data augmentation on QSPRs. Following data collection from literature, QSPR models were generated and results indicate models with adequate performance (R<sup>2</sup> &gt; 0.7). Results also demonstrated significant improvements in model performance with increasing amounts of applied data augmentation. However, a deeper evaluation of the results also highlighted that data augmentation can lead to misleading and overoptimistic model evaluation. Thus, proper model assessment is necessary when evaluating QSPRs. Variable importance analysis results revealed that the “initial concentration” and features related to the size and shape of MNPs were the most critical factors in the dissolution process.
