Using the TOPSIS method to select the best low-toxicity organic cosolvent for rice-based toxicity tests by Xingren Pan, Yi Kang, Jun-Feng Lu, Xiao-Zhang Yu

“…Results from phytotoxicity tests indicated that these organic solvents caused varying toxic responses in rice plants and significantly affected the uptake and distribution of mineral nutrients within rice tissues. In order to select the best organic solvent for rice-based toxicity tests among the four solvents with optimal concentrations, the technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) was employed to minimize the variations across different treatment groups. …”
