28. Monitoring the Transport of Minerals and Nutrients in a Plant

Image 28 of 41

This work analyzes various experimental results of nanoparticle (NP) transport in the matrix of a complex nutrient bed of various plant systems that seem to be measurable by x-ray imaging and near infra-red spectroscopy. Nanoparticles like metal oxide-induced phytotoxicity is very important and is widely studied to understand the interactions between plants and environmental NPs, however lanthanide NP complexes are not yet been studied in such systems. Hence we are working to understand the uptake and translocation as well as abiotic transformation and redox conversions. View or download a PDF version of this poster.
