“…However, the slopes were statistically not different for Triton X-100 concentrations from 200 mg L −1 to 1000 mg L −1 (p value = 0.8158). It can be explained by the weakened germination energy due to exposure to Triton X-100 [19]. In other words, the germination ability (i.e., germination percentage) was not lost by the exposure to Triton X-100, but the time taken for 100% germination became longer.…”

“…Similarly, the prolonged germination of seeds of lettuce and other crop seeds exposed to contaminated soil was reported. For example, the lettuce seed germination reached the maximum after 7 days when exposed to Triton X-100, while it took 2 days for the controls [19]. Also, the germination duration of tomatoes was longer in the As-contaminated soil samples than the control samples [20].…”

“…When the germination of wheat seeds on the wet gauze were considered, the seed germination was negatively affected by Triton X-100, and the shoot growth in the aquaponics system was also negatively affected. Similarly, the morphological traits of wheat and sugar beets were changed when their seeds were treated with Triton X-100 during germination [19,22].…”

This study was set to study the effects of surfactants on crops using Triton X-100, one of widely used surfactants for various purposes including agricultural uses, as a target surfactant. The effects of Triton X-100 on the growth of wheat and lettuce were studied and the germination and shoot growth of wheat were not significantly affected by Triton X-100. With lettuce, the increasing Triton X-100 concentrations tend to negatively affect the growth, possibly due to the absorption of Triton X-100 by lettuce. The average lettuce fresh mass was reduced by 31% when Triton X-100 concentration increased from 0 to 240 mg L−1. This may mean that chemicals dissolved or mobilized by Triton X-100 can be absorbed by lettuce. The Cd mobilization was facilitated with Triton X-100, and the absorption of procymidone in soil by lettuce was greater when Triton X-100 was applied (i.e., 0.18 mg kg−1) than when water was applied (i.e., 0.15 mg kg−1), although they were statistically not different (p-value > 0.05). The average lettuce masses in the presence of residual procymidone in soil and Triton X-100 (16 g) were lower than that of the control soils (20 g), although they were statistically not different (p-value > 0.05). The results suggest that surfactants contained in pesticide formulations can potentially affect crop growth and absorption of other contaminants. Therefore, the residual surfactants and active ingredients in pesticide formulations need to be properly managed to protect the environment and to produce crops free of contaminants.
