“…Seed germination tests measure soil toxicity directly, while root elongation, shoot, and leaf length tests consider the indirect effects of water constituents that may be present in the environment. Many studies indicated that the root system was more sensitive to environmental toxicity than the other considered endpoints (Liu et al, 2009;Rede et al, 2016). The median values of root elongation for Water and DMSO controls were not statistically significantly different and were equal to 55.28 mm and 58.16 mm, respectively (Table 1).…”

“…Acute toxicity tests were performed on a certified artificial sandy soil from MIBAL -Minas de Barqueiros S.A. (Apúlia, Portugal). This soil was slightly acid (pH = 5) without organic matter content, a water holding capacity of 50%, and a silica content of approximately 90%, which 99.9% is sand and 0.1% is silt (Rede et al, 2016).…”

“…Experimental procedure for acute ecotoxicity tests was set up according to Rede et al (2016) (Rede et al, 2016), which was based on section A.8.6 "Lettuce seed germination (Lactuca sativa)" from EPA 600/3-88-029 (Greene et al, 1996) and EPS 1/RM/45 Report (Biological test method: test for measuring emergence and growth of terrestrial plants exposed to contaminants in soil) (Canada, 2005). Briefly, twenty seeds of L. sativa were placed onto 100 g of pre-dried (104 °C, 24 h) sandy soil in polystyrene petri dishes (Ø = 140 mm).…”

“…Nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) is a compelling illustration of the ecosafety challenges associated with nanoremediation. For instance, Rede et al showed that using nZVI to treat an ibuprofen-contaminated soil had a negative impact in the germination and development of lettuce seeds (Rede et al, 2016). These results indicate that soil nanoremediation treatments might be, under certain circumstances, more prejudicial for terrestrial organisms than contaminated soils.…”
