AgNPs Change Microbial Community Structures of Wastewater [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 Due to their strong antimicrobial activity, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are massively produced, applied, consumed and, as a negative consequence, released into wastewater treatment plants. Most AgNPs are assumed to be bound by sludge, and thus bear potential risk for microbial performance and stability.
