Foliar exposure of the crop Lactuca sativa to silver nanoparticles: Evidence for internalization and changes in Ag speciation

TL;DR: First evidence is provided for the entrapment of Ag-NPs by the cuticle and penetration in the leaf tissue through stomata, for the diffusion of Ag in leaf tissues, and oxidation of Ag -NPs and complexation of Ag(+) by thiol-containing molecules.

Surface Plasmon Spectroscopy of Nanosized Metal Particles

TL;DR: In this paper, the use of optical measurements to monitor electrochemical changes on the surface of nanosized metal particles is discussed within the Drude model, and the absorption spectrum of a metal sol in water is shown to be strongly affected by cathodic or anodic polarization, chemisorption, metal adatom deposition, and alloying.
