Antimony induced structural and ultrastructural changes in Trapa natans

Abstract Antimony (Sb) is considered as a priority toxic metalloid in the earth crust having no known biological function. The current study was carried out in a hydroponic experiment to study the accumulation of ecotoxic Sb in subcellular level, and to find out the ultrastructural damage caused by...
