Abstract

Detergents are chemically made cleaning agents extensively used in households, industries; hospitals etc. and the spent detergents are released into nearby water bodies. Such detergent polluted water is often utilized for agriculture and home garden irrigation purposes. Much study has not been done to explore the impact of this polluted water on crop growth and its productivity. The current study tried to demonstrate the impact of some commonly used commercial detergents on crop growth by taking organogenesis in onion (Allium cepa L.) as model system and by utilizing low cost, origami based paper microscope tool i.e. foldscope. Our study divulged that for most of the detergents the minimum inhibitory concentration of organogenesis was 0.5% and compromised organogenesis was observed at low detergent concentrations (0.006, 0.012 and 0.025%). Stunted roots and decreased root density in onions were observed at higher detergent concentrations. Altered cell morphology (more dehydrated cells) and disordered cellular arrangement was observed in roots that were grown in high detergent concentrations by using Foldscope.
