Just Accepted “Just Accepted” manuscripts have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication. They are posted online prior to technical editing, formatting for publication and author proofing. The American Chemical Society provides “Just Accepted” as a service to the research community to expedite the dissemination of scientific material as soon as possible after acceptance. “Just Accepted” manuscripts appear in full in PDF format accompanied by an HTML abstract. “Just Accepted” manuscripts have been fully peer reviewed, but should not be considered the official version of record. They are citable by the Digital Object Identifier (DOI®). “Just Accepted” is an optional service offered to authors. Therefore, the “Just Accepted” Web site may not include all articles that will be published in the journal. After a manuscript is technically edited and formatted, it will be removed from the “Just Accepted” Web site and published as an ASAP article. Note that technical editing may introduce minor changes to the manuscript text and/or graphics which could affect content, and all legal disclaimers and ethical guidelines that apply to the journal pertain.

Abstract

17

Although environmental effects are mostly assessed via standard individual species the ecological

18

relevance of multispecies testing is well-recognised and highly recommended. Hence, the effect of

19

copper oxide nanomaterials (CuONM) and CuCl2 were assessed using the validated soil

20

multispecies system (SMS). Besides the individual species (IS) “standard” tests for all, a predation

21

study was done. Toxicity was higher in the SMS than in the IS, and longer exposure showed

22

increased toxicity. The predator (Hypoaspis aculeifer) preyed most on smaller species, but the net

23

biomass consumed was similar across species. Internal Cu in Folsomia candida reached ca. 140 µg

24

Cu/g dry weight, fluctuating over time, especialy for CuCl2. Copper was mostly bound to soil

25

components for both Cu forms (
