This document summarizes a study that evaluated the toxicity of three engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) - silicon (Si) nanoparticles, and carbon-coated silicon carbide (SiΩC99) nanoparticles of 40nm and 75nm size - using a high throughput screening approach on marine mussel (Mytilus edulis) hemocytes. The study found that the 75nm SiΩC99 nanoparticles were generally more toxic than the 40nm SiΩC99 or 40nm Si nanoparticles, as evidenced by their effects on various biomarkers like oxidative stress, DNA damage, membrane transport, immune response and detoxification. The results indicate that both size and carbon coating influence the toxicity profile of the ENMs, with
