Green synthesis and characterization of Triphala SiO
Article in Discover nano, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The agricultural sector faces numerous challenges because of chemical fertilizers. Overuse of chemicals results in soil degradation, water and environmental pollution, potential health risks in all living forms on the earth. Chemical fertilizers adversely affects the soil microbes, deteriorating soil quality by nutritional deficits, hence necessitating eco-friendly alternatives for fostering crop growth. Nanotechnology provides innovative solutions, impacting every stage from seed germination to storage, promoting sustainable farming practices. Among these advancements, silica nanoparticles (SiNp) have emerged as a promising candidate for enhancing plant growth and development. To explore this potential, we report a novel green synthesis of Triphala medited silica nanoparticles (TpSiNps) by using aqueous fruit extract from a blend of Terminalia bellirica, Emblica officinalis, and Terminalia chebula fruits (Triphala), marking the first green synthesis of silica nanoparticles using a polyherbal formulation. The synthesized TpSiNps were characterized as stable, heterogeneous, and nano-coarse. Vigna radiata, a widely cultivated and nutritionally rich legume of agricultural significance, posed as a plant model to evaluate the potential of TpSiNps in promoting plant growth. Seedlings were treated with TpSiNps (1 ppm, 5 ppm, and 10 ppm) and analysed for seed germination, growth, and biochemical constituents. Experimental findings indicate that at 10 ppm, TpSiNps improved seed germination by ~ 45% and enhanced growth parameters, with shoot length by ~ 107%, root length by ~ 58%, and fresh biomass by ~ 59% in tested Vigna radiata. Furthermore, increased levels of bio constituents, including carbohydrates (~ 21%), proteins (~ 8%), tryptophan (~ 10%), chlorophyll (~ 8%), and carotenoids (~ 12%) suggest a stimulatory effect of TpSiNps on the metabolic processes of Vigna radiata. These results highlight TpSiNps's potential as a viable green nanotechnology solution for addressing agricultural challenges and ensuring food security.
