Multipurpose fluorescent nanocarriers: environmental behavior, toxicity and internalization on marine microalgae

<p>The present dataset contains environmental behavior data (DLS - dynamic light scattering; zeta potential), UV-vis and fluorescence (emission) data and ecotoxicological data, in particular, growth inhibition effects of umbelliferone (UMB), silica mesoporous nanocapsules (SiNC) and silica mesoporous nanocapsules loaded with umbelliferone (SiNC-UMB) towards five marine phytoplanctonic species (<em><span>Tetraselmis chuii</span></em><span>, </span><em><span>Nannochloropsis gaditana,</span></em><em><span>&nbsp;Isochrysis galbana,</span></em><span>&nbsp;</span><em><span>Phaeodactylum tricornutum, </span></em><span>and&nbsp;</span><em><span>Chaetoceros calcitrans</span></em>).&nbsp;</p>
