Aqueous Systems Based on Metaphos in Low Concentration: The Relationship between Self-Assembly, Physico-Chemical, and Biological Properties.

It has been shown for the first time that aqueous solutions of metaphos pesticide (1×10-1×10 mol/L) are disperse systems, the disperse phase undergoing rearrangement upon dilution. The relationship between nonmonotonic concentration dependences of the nanoassociate size, physico-chemical properties of the systems, and their action on higher plants and hydrocoles has been found.
