From: Accumulation of phenanthrene by roots of intact wheat (Triticum acstivnmL.) seedlings: passive or active uptake?

Figure 5

Uptake competition between phenanthrene and naphthalene in wheat roots. Hydroponic solution was Hoagland nutrient solution (pH 5.5). PHE, Hoagland solution contained 2.81 μM phenanthrene. NAP, Hoagland solution contained 3.91 μM naphthalene. PHE (PHE+NAP), Hoagland solution contained 2.81 μM phenanthrene and 3.91 μM naphthalene, and phenanthrene uptake was detected. NAP (PHE+NAP), Hoagland solution contained 2.81 μM phenanthrene and 3.91 μM naphthalene, and naphthalene uptake was detected. Data points represent mean and SD values of triplicates. fr wt, Fresh weight. PAHs, Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. PHE, Phenanthrene. NAP, Naphthalene.
