title: Effects of CdO nanoparticles on the development and hatching of a freshwater pulmonate snail Lymnaea luteola L.
abstract: The existing information and data on ecotoxicological impact of nanomaterials is limited. Therefore the present study was undertaken to study the effects of CdO nanoparticles on an Indian freshwater pulmonate snail Lymnaea luteola L. The present study demonstrated that even at 1.0 ppm CdO nanoparticles blocked the development of pond snail.
