Fertility and Iron Bioaccumulation in <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> Fed with Magnetite Nanoparticles Using a Validated Method

Fertility and Iron Bioaccumulation in <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> Fed with Magnetite Nanoparticles Using a Validated Method

Research on nanomaterial exposure-related health risks is still quite limited; this includes standardizing methods for measuring metals in living organisms. Thus, this study validated an atomic absorption spectrophotometry method to determine fertility and bioaccumulated iron content in <i>Dro...
