Nederstigt, Tom A.P. (author), Bode, Bo (author), van Ommen, J.R. (author), Peijnenburg, Willie J.G.M. (author), Vijver, Martina G. (author)Novel nanomaterial-based pesticide formulations are increasingly perceived as promising aids in the transition to more efficient agricultural production systems. The current understanding of potential unintended (eco)toxicological impacts of nano-formulated pesticides is scarce, in particular with regard to (non-target) aquatic organisms and...journal article 2023

Nederstigt, Tom A.P. (author), Peijnenburg, Willie J.G.M. (author), Schrama, Maarten (author), van Ommen, J.R. (author), Vijver, Martina G. (author)Recently, the delivery of pesticides through novel controlled-release (nano-)formulations has been proposed intending to reduce (incidental) pesticide translocation to non-target sites. Concerns have however been raised with regards to the potentially enhanced toxicity of controlled-release (nano-)formulations to non-target organisms and...journal article 2022

Wu, Juan (author), Zhai, Y. (author), Liu, G. (author), Bosker, Thijs (author), Vijver, Martina G. (author), Peijnenburg, Willie J.G.M. (author)Assessment of chronic impact of metallic nanoparticles (NPs) in soil ecosystems is a necessity for ensuring safe and sustainable application. NPs affect plants and their associated microbial life, while the plants and their associated microbiota affect the NPs' fate. Here, we measured the available Ag pool (determined as...journal article 2021

Zhai, Yujia (author), Hunting, Ellard R. (author), Liu, G. (author), Baas, Elise (author), Peijnenburg, Willie J.G.M. (author), Vijver, Martina G. (author)Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO<sub>2</sub>NP) are increasingly released in soil ecosystems, while there is limited understanding of the impacts of TiO<sub>2</sub>NP on soil bacterial communities. Here we investigated the effects of TiO<sub>2</sub>NP on the taxonomic composition and functional profile of a soil bacterial community over a...journal article 2019
