The purpose of the research was to identify the nature of the effect of carbon nanomaterials on seedlings of plants. The work used biological methods, in particular biotesting. The corn produced in Kazakhstan was used as testing material. For this several soil samples containing carbon, nanomaterials were prepared. In the experiment, we have monitored the growth of the seeds planted directly to soil samples. According to the results of the study, it became evident that carbon nanomaterials in the form of nanotubes applied to the deposited material, due to their properties, stimulate the growth of plants during the process. This explains the wide range of applications of carbon nanomaterials.
