Attarad Ali,Hira Zafar,Muhammad Zia,Ihsan-ul Haq,Abdul Rehman Phull,Joham Sarfraz Ali,Altaf Hussain +6 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes the methods for the preparation of iron oxide NPs, size and morphology control, and magnetic properties with recent bioengineering, commercial, and industrial applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of ZnO Nanoparticles on Brassica nigra Seedlings and Stem Explants: Growth Dynamics and Antioxidative Response.
TL;DR: ZnO NPs may induce roots from explants cultured on appropriate medium that can be used for production of valuable secondary metabolites, particularly in relation to antioxidative activities and non-enzymatic antioxidants.
Journal ArticleDOI
CuO Nanoparticles Inhibited Root Growth from Brassica nigra Seedlings but Induced Root from Stem and Leaf Explants.
TL;DR: It is concluded that CuO NPs can induce rooting from plant explants cultured on appropriate medium and can be explored for the production of active chemical constituents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physiological and antioxidative response of Brassica nigra (L.) to ZnO nanoparticles grown in culture media and soil
TL;DR: In this paper, brassica nigra seeds were exposed to 50 −1000 µg L−1 ZnO nanoparticles in culture media and 100 − 1000 µg kg−1 in soil.
Journal ArticleDOI
CuO and ZnO Nanoparticle Application in Synthetic Soil Modulates Morphology, Nutritional Contents, and Metal Analysis of Brassica nigra.
TL;DR: CuO and ZnO NPs have detrimental effect on the B. nigra plant and yield and the release of NPs and type of metal in NPs might also have a positive effect on a plant; however, their concentration in the soil also matters.
