Toxicity of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles to the microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) have been widely studied for different biomedical and environmental applications. In this study we evaluated the toxicity and potential alterations of relevant physiological parameters caused to the microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (C. reinhardti...
