The toxic effect of CuO of different dispersion degrees on the structure and ultrastructure of spring barley cells (Hordeum sativum distichum).

Nowadays, nanotechnology is one of the most dynamically developing and most promising technologies. However, the safety issues of using metal nanoparticles, their environmental impact on soil and plants are poorly understood. These studies are especially important in terms of copper-based nanomaterials because they are widely used in agriculture.
