Linked Claims

Claim 1mechanismsupports2015Source 1DOIPubMed

Proteins released by Daphnia magna form an eco-corona around polystyrene nanoparticles.

Claim 2physiological effectsupports2015Source 1DOIPubMed

Polystyrene nanoparticles remaining in the gut of Daphnia magna affect the rate of subsequent feeding.

Claim 3retention effectsupports2015Source 1DOIPubMed

The secreted protein eco-corona makes polystyrene nanoparticles less efficiently removed from the gut of Daphnia magna.

Claim 4toxicity effectsupports2015Source 1DOIPubMed

The secreted protein eco-corona increases toxicity of polystyrene nanoparticles toward Daphnia magna.

Claim 5uptake effectsupports2015Source 1DOIPubMed

The secreted protein eco-corona increases uptake of polystyrene nanoparticles by Daphnia magna.
