Zinc-Based Nanostructures for Environmental and Agricultural
Applications shows how zinc nanostructures are being used in
agriculture, food and the environment. The book has been divided
into two parts: Part I deals with the synthesis and
characterization of zinc-based nanostructures such as biogenic,
plant, microbial, and actinobacteria mediated synthesis of zinc
nanoparticles, Part II is focused on agri-food applications such as
antibacterial, antifungal, antimicrobial, plant disease management,
controlling post-harvest diseases, pesticide sensing and
degradations, plant promotions, ZnO nanostructure for food
packaging application, safe animal food and feed supplement,
elimination of mycotoxins, and veterinary applications. Part III
reviews technological developments in environmental applications
such as risks and benefits for aquatic organisms and the marine
environment, antiseptic activity and toxicity mechanisms,
wastewater treatment, and zinc oxide-based nanomaterials for
photocatalytic degradation of environmental and agricultural
pollutants. The book discusses various aspects, including the
application of zinc-based nanostructures to enhance plant health
and growth, the effect on soil microbial activity, antimicrobial
mechanism, phytotoxicity and accumulation in plants, the possible
impact of zinc-based nanostructures in the agricultural sector as
nanofertilizer, enhancing crop productivity, and other possible
antimicrobial mechanisms of ZnO nanomaterials.
