Résumé
Plastic is a wide-spread pollutant and must be evaluated for potential adverse effects of its breakdown product, microplastic (≤5 mm) along with its subfraction, nanoplastic (1-100 nm). Risk assessment of pollutants cannot be conducted without their toxicity (dose-response) data. In this study, toxicity of polystyrene nanoplastics (PS-NPL) was evaluated using 8 acute and 1 subchronic toxicity assays with 10 organisms of different biological complexity (bacteria, yeast, algae, protozoans, mammalian cells in vitro, crustaceans, midge larvae). Commercial 26 and 100 nm carboxylated PS-NPL spheres were chosen as model and tested in nominal concentrations up to 100 mg/L (1.025·10
