Abstract
⺠In general ageing decreases toxicity/genotoxicity of soil spiked with aqueous suspensions of NMs. ⺠Ageing may promote degradation of organic shells of metallic NPs increasing toxicity. ⺠Toxicity was recorded despite aggregation of NPs in the aqueous suspensions. ⺠Soils spiked with Au nanorods, quantum dots, TiSiO4 induced mutations in Salmonella typhimurium.
