This study looked at the effect of neutron activated cobalt and silver nanoparticles, as well as soluble cobalt and silver salts. The concentrations of nanoparticles in the worms after four months were 88 percent and 69 percent for the cobalt ions and nanoparticles, respectively. The corresponding values for silver ions and nanoparticles were 2.3 and 0.4 percent. Silver ions and nanoparticles in earthworms were excreted quickly, while only 32 percent of the accumulated cobalt was excreted within four months. The team found a high accumulation of cobalt in blood and the digestive tract. The authors conclude that silver ions and nanoparticles were more inert, while the cobalt nanoparticles showed significant dissolution and release of ions.
