Bioaccumulation and Histological Studies in Zno Nanoparticles Exposed Eudrilus Eugeniae

Metallic nanoparticles are highly involved in various products and released into the environment by either accidently or intentionally. This study focused about the bioaccumulation and toxic effect of ZnO nanoparticles in Earthworm Eudrilus eugeniae. ZnO nanoparticles exposed earthworm tissues showed accumulation. Increased concentration of nanoparticles observed as increased concentration of accumulation. Bodywall and gut tissues showed altered morphology due to the exposure and assimilation of ZnO nanoparticle. This study proved that low concentration of ZnO nanoparticles affects the earthworm tissues.
