Nano's Troubled Waters:
Latest toxic warning shows nanoparticles cause brain damage in aquatic species and highlights need for a moratorium on the release of new nanomaterials

In a separate experiment, Oberdörster found that buckyballs are also toxic to "water fleas" - in buckyball-tainted water, half the water flea population was dead in two days. (According to Oberdörster, that means buckyballs are "moderately toxic" to water fleas, more toxic than nickel, but less toxic than copper.[5]) Because water fleas (crustaceans a few millimeters long) are a food source for other aquatic species, Oberdörster expressed concern that nanoparticles could begin to accumulate throughout the food chain, affecting not just fish, but plants and other animals, including people.(6) Both largemouth bass and water fleas are standard test species for aquatic toxicity.

Here is a quiz to help you along the way with the understanding of nanotechnology; here is the thing, some of the quiz is no longer accurate but most of it is.

It still helps to get your brain thinking about it.

It is important to know that the water flea would leave its brood when a nano speck found its way to the brain. That is a big change that could cause what an eco collapse and think of it in humans!
