Effects of silver nanoparticles on radish sprouts: Root growth reduction and modifications in the nutritional value
Reports indicate that silver nanoparticles (nAg) are toxic to vegetation, but little is known about their effects in crop plants. This study examines the impacts of nAg on the physiology and nutritional quality of radish (Raphanus sativus) sprouts. Seeds were germinated and grown for five days in nA...
