Humic acid can mitigate the toxicity of small copper oxide nanoparticles to microbial decomposers and leaf decomposition in streams

As the use of copper oxide nanoparticles (nanoCuO) in consumer products grows, aquatic ecosystems are likely to receive increasing amounts of these nanomaterials. Dissolved organic matter (DOM) may interact with nanoparticles and reduce their reactive surface area, which, in turn, can influence the...
