Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Comparative Analysis on the Physiological Effects of the Physical and Chemical Properties of the Trihalomethanes on Nutrient Levels, Oxidative Stress and Sterol Compositions of Leaf Oils in Solanum Lycopersicum CultivarsBabatunde C. Akande, Olalekan S. Fatoki, James P. Odendaal et al.Trihalomethane group of disinfection by-products was used to evaluate the magnitude of physiological changes induced on nutrient levels, oxidative stress and phytosterol content in two tomato cultivars. The tomato cultivars were grown as potted plants in a greenhouse and exposed to the varying concentrations of trihalomethanes and organochlorines via irrigation water for a period of 30 days. The concentration levels … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 11 May 2018 · 8,413 accessesView PDFCite
