Abstract:Metallic nanoparticles can be synthesised in living plants, which provide a friendly approach. In this work, the authors aimed to study the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in Arabidopsis and the two-dimensional (2D) distribution of Ag and other elements (Ca, P, S, Mg, and CI) in the Arabidopsis plant tissues. The concentrations of Ag in the plant tissues were determined by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometer, showing that the majority of Ag was retained in the roots.
