My research experience spans both plant and animal systems, with a focus on the biological effects of nanomaterials. In my earlier work, I investigated the use of different nanoparticles to treat crop seedlings and observed their growth-promoting effects. Building on this work, I authored a review summarizing how various nanoparticles influence plant growth, aiming to provide a comprehensive overview of their potential applications in agriculture.

Currently, my research centers on the toxicological effects of nanoplastics in chicken embryos. I focus on the localization of nanoplastics within embryonic tissues and their potential teratogenic effects. Through this work, I aim to improve our understanding of how nanoplastics interact with biological systems and to elucidate the mechanisms underlying their toxic effects, contributing to a clearer assessment of the ecological and biological risks posed by nanoplastics.
