Abstract
This paper presents the influence of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory
drugs (diclofenac, ibuprofen, and naproxen), antibiotics (ampicillin, ciprofloxacin),
nanomaterials (CNT-COOH, CNT-MnO2 etc) and heavy metals (Cu, Cd etc) on the
lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.). The evaluation of the impact of these pollutants on
photosynthetic pigments, total polyphenols, antioxidant activity and the variation of
multielement content was followed. From these studies it was observed that the VOCs
emission rate increase with the increase of the pollutant concentration and the quantity
of chlorophylls, carotenoids, polyphenols and flavonoids decrease. In conclusion, these
can be employed as a stress signal of the plants or as biomarkers. All these information
can be used for assessment the resistance and resilience of plants to environmental
stressors and will be applied for plant protection.
