Toxic Effects of Nickel Oxide Bulk and Nanoparticles on the Aquatic Plant Lemna gibba L.
The aquatic plant Lemna gibba L. was used to investigate and compare the toxicity induced by 30 nm nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiO-NPs) and nickel(II) oxide as bulk (NiO-Bulk). Plants were exposed during 24 h to 0-1000 mg/L of NiO-NPs or NiO-Bulk. Analysis of physicochemical characteristics of nanoparticles in solution indicated agglomerations of NiO-NPs in culture medium and a wide size distri...
متن کاملToxicity of manufactured copper nanoparticles - A review
The health effects of nanoparticles (NPs) are raising considerable and growing concerns from the public and government around the world. Nano-metals are new forms of metal with special properties, but are characterized by having a particle size of less than 100 nm. Copper is an essential trace element and its deficiency leads to different diseases in humans. In gen...
متن کاملGrowth response of Lemna gibba L. (duckweed) to copper and nickel phytoaccumulation Effet de l’accumulation de Cu et Ni sur la croissance de Lemna gibba L. (lentilles d’eau)
To assess the tolerance and phytoaccumulation ability of the duckweed Lemna gibba L. to copper (Cu) and nickel (Ni), the aquatic plants were exposed to different concentrations of Cu and Ni (0.1 – 2.0 mg/L) in quarter Coïc and Lesaint solution at pH = 6.0 (± 0.1) and under a daily regime of 12 h light. Copper and nickel were tolerated by L. gibba at concentrations ≤ 0.3 mg/L and ≤ 0.5 mg/L, res...
متن کاملExogenous salicylate application affects the lead and copper accumulation characteristics of Lemna gibba L.
Previous studies have shown that salicylates can change the ion permeability of root cells. Therefore the possible effects of exogenous salicylate application on lead (Pb) and copper (Cu) accumulation and its protective role against DNA damage due to metal exposure in Lemna gibba were studied. L. gibba was exposed to 5, 10, and 25 microM Pb and Cu for six days in the presence and absence of sod...
متن کاملEvaluation of chicory seeds maturity by chlorophyll fluorescence imaging
Chicory (Cichorium intybus L.) seed production includes sorting to remove foreign materials and non-viable seeds. A machine vision system was developed to monitor the fluorescence in order to detect the immature chicory seeds. It comprised a monochromatic light source, a highpass filter and a monochromatic CCD camera sensitive to red and infrared. With this device, blue light reflected by the s...
