Original Abstract
In this work, we investigated the effect of Plasma Activated Water (PAW) on seeds germination and subsequent plant growth. Plasma activated water was prepared by 3 different plasma systems and the content of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species was determined using colorimetric reagents and UV-VIS spectrometry. Distilled as well as tap water was used for preparation of PAW. A germination test was used to assess effects of PAW on germination and early growth of seedlings. It was found out that PAW can increase germination of seeds of Zea maize L. Pot experiments were conducted with the plant Raphanus sativa L. In pot experiments, however, PAW did not have any positive effect on the plant growth. The effect on the plant growth was determined by weighing of oth underground part (bulb) and aboveground part (leaves) as well as by the content of the dry matter.
