Detection and quantification of nanoparticles in runoff from a highly trafficked urban motorway - Environmental Science: Nano (RSC Publishing)

Urban rainfall and runoff are major transport vectors for pollutants into the aquatic environment. In this context, road traffic is a significant factor in the contamination of the urban environment in general, and runoff in particular. Some metals, such as Cu, Zn, Fe, and Ti, have been found in dissolved fraction (< 0.45 μm) in such water.....
