Daphnia magna nanotoxicity database
"KIT Daphnia data on nano particles" dataset is based on "Meta-analysis of Daphnia magna nanotoxicity experiments in accordance with test guidelines", Shin, Hyun Kil & Seo, Myungwon & Shin, Seong & Kim, Kwang-Yon & Park, June-Woo & No, Kyoung Tai (2018) study and contains the raw “original_daphnia” data file and its eight derived processed files.
The "original_daphnia" data is compiled from research articles in which nanotoxicity toward Daphnia Magna was measured according to the test guidelines from OECD and US EPA. Toxic response caused by nanomaterials have been assayed; however, the assay outcomes were varied between research articles. Therefore, this data set was compiled for meta-analysis to figure out what may be the cause of data heterogeneity between diverse assay outcomes.
This data contains physicochemical properties of nanomaterials, experimental conditions for assays and toxic response measurement. Most of physicochemical properties of nanomaterials were taken from the research articles without considering measurement details for them since measurement details were often absent in the articles. Therefore, further details could only be found in reference research article. Since nanomaterials were easily aggregated in media, dispersion methods were applied to make nanomaterials being nano-sized particle. Centrifuge, stir, sonication, and filter were four dispersion methods used among research articles.
