We aim to understand the environmental fate and behavior of nanomaterials that are of agricultural relevance in plants and soil. We analyze parameters such as the dissolution kinetics, sorption, crystallinity, concentration, and distribution of environmentally relevant inorganic nanoparticles in complex matrices using techniques such as inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry, colorimetry, transmission electron microscopy, dark-field microscopy with hyperspectral imaging, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and electron diffraction.
