VEGA 1/0331/23; 2025-2026; Principal investigator; Innovative approaches to the methodological study of the properties of inorganic nanoparticles during their iosynthesis and transformation and other aspects of behaviour in the soil-plant model system using LA-ICP-MS, Mössbauer spectroscopy and other spectrometric methods; Detection, quantification and transformation of nanoparticles in plant tissues and soil is a current issue with considerable attention from environmental and analytical chemists and geochemists. The project aims to create synthetic inorganic nanoparticles made of various elements (Au, Ag, Fe, Ti and Zn) by biosynthesis using plant and fungus extracts and to design, develop and validate innovative methodologies for LA-ICP-MS and Mössbauer spectroscopy to detect and quantify these nanoparticles in a soil-plant system. These methods, along with other spectrometric and electron icroscopy methods, will help with the study of the factors affecting the transformation, distribution, and bioaccumulation of these inorganic nanoparticles and their potential to affect the ranslocation of potentially toxic elements (As, Cd, and others) to various plant parts.
