Investigating Usage Potential of Datura stramonium L. for Phytoremediation of 2,4-Dichlorophenol

In this work, the phytoremediation potential of 2,4-Dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) from soil and wetlands by Datura stramonium L. (jimsonweed) was investigated. The medium seedlings growing in a hydroponic system adjusted to different concentrations (0.0, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200, 225, 250 275 ppm) 2,4-DCP. Four days later, remediation rate 2,4-DCP growth medium, root-stem length, dry weight, lipid peroxidation (LPO), protein photosynthetic pigment content were evaluated. D. provided between 52-78% at all concentrations. addition, treatments inhibited lengths weights compared their controls, particularly high doses such as 200-275 ppm, but not low doses. applications generally increased LPO roots leaves slightly, did affect chlorophyll. results show that has usage for
