 Deryabina T.D. THE STUDY OF IONS, NANO- AND MICRO-SIZED CU AND FE PARTICLES BIOSAFETY IN TRITICUM AESTIVUM SEEDS GERMINATION TESTIn Triticum aestivum seeds germination test the influence of equimolar concentrations of ions, nano- and micro-sized Cu and Fe particles has been investigated. The EC50 phytotoxicity level is much more exhibited on copper compared to the iron and dramatically increased at row line "microparticles > nanoparticles > ions". The most expressed reaction of wheat sprouts root system to influence of investigated toxicants is established.Key words: iron, copper, nanoparticles, phytotoxicity
