Brinkmann et al., 2020, Nanotoxicology, Particle-specific dose-response data

This dataset comprises particle-specific mortality estimates from acute toxicity tests with silver and zinc oxide nanoparticles in zebrafish larvae under germ-free and microbially-colonized conditions.<br>Details of this experiment have been published in <i>Nanotoxicology</i>: <br>Brinkmann BW, Koch BEV, Spaink HP, Peijnenburg WJGM, and Vijver MG, 2020. Colonizing microbiota protect zebrafish larvae against silver nanoparticle toxicity. <i>Nanotoxicology, </i>14(6): 725-739. Doi: 10.1080/17435390.2020.1755469<br>The six parameters of the dataset are:- <i>Compound</i>. One of the two nanoparticles that were tested in the acute toxicity test, including: nAg, silver nanoparticles; and nZnO, zinc oxide nanoparticles.- <i>Concentration</i>. The nominal silver and zinc oxide nanoparticle concentrations, expressed in mg Ag/L and mg ZnO/L respectively.- <i>TWA_total</i>. The actual time-weighted average concentrations of the total of nanoparticles and their shed ions in exposure media, expressed in mg Ag/L and mg ZnO/L, respectively.- <i>TWA_particle</i>. The actual time-weighted average exposure concentration of nanoparticles, expressed in mg Ag/L and mg ZnO/L, respectively.<br>- <i>Condition</i>. The germ-free or microbially-colonized condition of zebrafish larvae.<br>- <i>Mortality</i>. The estimated percentage of larvae that have died in the toxicity test due to the presence of particles in the exposure medium.<br><br>This dataset has been saved in a tab-delimited text file format.
