How do physicochemical properties influence the toxicity of silver nanoparticles on freshwater decomposers of plant litter in streams?

AgNP physicochemical properties may affect AgNP toxicity, but their effects on plant litter decomposition and the species driving this key ecosystem process in freshwaters have been poorly investigated. We assessed the impacts of AgNPs with different size and surface coating (100 nm PVP (polyvinylpy...
