Silver nanoparticles and silver/silica nanocomposites: Impacts on Z. mays L. growth, nutrient uptake and soil health

Although silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) are widely employed in diverse industries, including agriculture, concerns about their adverse effects on plants at higher concentrations prompt exploration of alternatives, such as Ag/SiO2 NCs. Adding nano SiO2 is anticipated to create a complex with Ag+ ions,...
