説明

Over the last few decades, engineering nanomaterials (ENMs) have been incorporated into a variety of commercially-available consumer products (CPs). Silver Nanoparticles (AgNP ( are the most used ENMs in CPs, mainly due to their antibacterial properties. To better understand the fate, transport, and environmental impacts of AgNPs, many studies have been conducted. However, this research has been focused mainly on pristine AgNPs either lab-synthesized or purchased commercially. While these studies have contributed greatly to a better understanding of AgNP toxicology, they have not addressed the environmental concerns associated with AgNP release from CPs. This review assesses previously published work on routes of environmental exposure, characterization techniques, potential ecological risks of AgNPs, and the identification of available toxicity assays for AgNPs in CPs. A major objective of this review is to summarize and identify key issues, knowledge gaps, and potential directions for future research related to AgNPs released from CPs.
