Abstract
Manufactured nanomaterials (MNMs) are more frequently found in consumer products as well as in industrial and agricultural applications. The high volume of production, use, and disposal of MNM-containing wastes increase the probability of release of these products to the environment. An ever-increasing number of articles have shown that MNMs impact plants and other organisms in different ways. In this chapter, we discuss the biophysical methods currently used to measure the uptake, translocation, accumulation, and speciation of MNMs within plants. We included methods used to analyze plants exposed to carbon-based and metal-based MNMs. Advantages and disadvantages of each analytical technique are discussed.
