To evaluate the effects of surface chemical modifications on the toxicity of graphene to aquatic organisms, we investigated the transgenerational effects of six reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanocomposites (rGO-Au, rGO-Ag, rGO-Pd, rGO-Fe3O4, rGO-Co3O4, rGO-SnO2) on Daphnia magna over two generations. The reversibility of the effects was also assessed using recovery experiments. Physiological endpoints, including mortality, body length, neonate numbers and time of first brood, were measured to assess toxicity. The results indicated that rGO-Ag and rGO-Co3O4 induced higher toxicity in D. magna compared with rGO, whereas rGO-Pd induced lower toxicity in D. magna. rGO-Au, rGO-Fe3O4 and rGO-SnO2 did not significantly alter the survival, growth and reproduction of D. magna compared with rGO. The different effects of the six rGO nanocomposites on D. magna were largely dependent on their specific surface area and metallic element type. In addition, the results strongly suggested the occurrence of maternal effects, which induced higher sensitivity to toxic stress and decreased ability to survive and reproduce of the offspring. However, the maternal effects were reversible in the offspring transferred to a clean medium. This study indicated that surface chemical modifications played a crucial role in altering the ecotoxicities and environmental effects of graphene materials. (C) 2017 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
