Abstract
⺠Suspension-feeding by mussels can greatly alter mobility and fate of metal oxide nanoparticles. ⺠Bioprocessing of metal oxide nanoparticles by mussels removes large fraction from water column. ⺠Mussels repackage metal oxide nanoparticles in highly concentrated pseudofeces. ⺠Novel biological pathway between major compartments in marine systems. ⺠Very different outcome for ZnO and CeO2 nanoparticles based on their solubility.
