In addition to the toxic effects of TiO2 NPs, discussed in previous chapters, these NPs have been also shown to promote photosynthesis and nitrogen metabolism, resulting in the enhanced growth of spinach. It increases the absorption of light and accelerates the transfer and transformation of the light energy. It was also found that treatment with nano-sized TiO2 significantly increased the level of antioxidant enzymes, and decreased the ROS accumulation and malonyldialdehyde content in spinach chloroplasts under visible and UV irradiation. TiO2 NPs also increased the superoxide dismutase activity of germinating soybean, enhanced its antioxidant ability, and promoted seed germination and seedling growth.

In conclusion, the determination of sulfate as TiO2 is a specialized field requiring careful selection of analytical methods. Whether through classical gravimetric analysis, titrimetric procedures, or modern instrumental techniques, each method presents its own set of challenges and benefits. Accuracy, precision, and the context of analysis guide the choice of methodology in ensuring that TiO2 meets the desired specifications for various applications. As science progresses, so too does our ability to measure and control the quality of materials like TiO2, ensuring their safe and effective use across industries.
