Abstrakt: In this study, the interaction effects of NaAsO 2 (1 and 5 μM), SiO 2 NPs (10 and 100 mg/L) and CeO 2 NPs (10 and 100 mg/L) were assessed in Vigna mungo (Blackgram). The treatment of NaAsO 2 , SiO 2 , CeO 2 -NPs and combinations of NPs & As were applied to blackgram plants under hydroponic conditions. After its application, the morpho-physiological, antioxidant activity, and phytochemical study were evaluated. At 10 and 100 mg/L of SiO 2 and CeO 2 -NPs, there was an increase in antioxidative enzymatic activity (p < 0.05) and reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, substantial ROS accumulation was observed at 1 and 5 μM NaAsO 2 and 100 mg/L SiO 2 NPs (p < 0.05). Additionally, at such concentrations, there is a substantial reduction in photosynthetic pigments, nitrogen fixation, chlorosis, and plant development when compared to controls (p < 0.05). The combination of SiO 2 and CeO 2 NPs (10 and 100 mg/L) with NaAsO 2 decreased superoxide radical and hydrogen peroxide and improved SOD, CAT, APX, GR, and chlorophyll pigments (p < 0.05). Further FTIR results were evaluated for documenting elemental and phytochemical analysis.
