Because of the continuous emission of PFASs, further information about their ecotoxicological potential among multiple generations, species interactions, and mixture toxicity seems fundamental to reliably assess the risks forPFASs to affect ecosystem structure and function in the aquatic environment.

The data suggest that the carrier function of nTiO2 plays a central role in the toxicity and uptake of the elements silver, arsenic and copper, and that to understand the processes and mechanisms occurring in the field due to the presence of n TiO2 further systematic investigations are required.

The results suggest that the European Union’s first-tier ERA provides sufficient protection for the tested fungicides, with the exception of tebuconazole and the mixture, while higher-tierERA does not provide an adequate level of protection for fungicides in general.
