Phytotoxic Effects of Detergents on Lentils (Lens Culinaris) under Biotest Conditions
摘要
Abstract
A review of studies on the biological effects of detergents is presented. The impact of detergents contain- ing synthetic surfactants on lentil sprouts (Lens culinaris) was investigated under biotest conditions. At detergents concentrations of 0.5 and 5 g/L (Persil Color Plus and E Color), the plants died. At 0.05 g/L, plant growth was significantly inhibited. The experiment demonstrated that surfactants and detergents are serious environmental pollutants.
