Graphene oxide interaction with Lemna minor: Root barrier strong enough to prevent nanoblade-morphology-induced toxicity

- 01 Mar 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors studied the interaction of three differently oxidized GO systems with a model aquatic plant Lemna minor and found that although none of the three GOs caused lethal phytotoxicity to Lemna after 7 days, the mechanism of action was dependent on the surface oxidation.
