This study assesses the biological effects of nanoparticles (NPs) based on seed germination
and root elongation tests. Lettuce, radish and cucumber seeds were incubated with various …

Increasing applications of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) warrant lifecycle assessment
of their potential toxicity. Herein, we investigated potential phytotoxicity of copper oxide …

Wet chemistry was used to produce copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs). The results
indicated that most nanoparticles were bacillus-shaped and relatively uniform in size (less …

Expanding applications of metal-oxide nanoparticles (NPs) and increased environmental
deposition of NPs followed by their interactions with edible crops threaten yields. This study …

The use of nanotechnology to suppress crop diseases has attracted increasing attention in
agriculture. The present work investigated the antifungal efficacy of copper oxide …

The increasing application of nanomaterials in agriculture raises environmental risks, but the
information on how nanomaterials impact plant proteins is still limited. Here, we exposed the …

Metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) are reported to impact plant growth in hydroponic systems.
This study describes the impact of commercial CuO (< 50 nm) and ZnO (< 100 nm) NPs on …

In this study, we investigated the effects of citric acid (CA) coated copper oxide nanoparticles
(CuO NPs) and their application method (foliar or soil exposure) on the growth and …

The extensive use of agrochemicals for crop protection is increasing their environmental
risks. Due to the incredible antimicrobial potential of nanomaterials, research into their …

Understanding the complex mechanisms involved in plant response to nanoparticles (NPs)
is indispensable in assessing the environmental impact of nano-pollutants. Plant leaves can …
