Enhanced industrial wastewater monitoring: method development for non-target screening of highly polar substances using ZIC-HILIC-HRMS.

Non-target screening (NTS) plays a major role in the monitoring and management of water bodies. While the NTS of moderate to non-polar substances is well-established, the screening of highly polar chemicals remains challenging. In this study, a robust separation method for highly polar substances using zwitterionic hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography coupled with high-resolution mass spectrometry (ZIC-HILIC-HRMS) was developed.

Production of Siderophores by an Apple Root-Associated Strain GS2 Using Chemical and Biological OSMAC Approaches.

Apple Replant Disease (ARD) is a significant problem in apple orchards that causes root tissue damage, stunted plant growth, and decline in fruit quality, size, and overall yield. Dysbiosis of apple root-associated microbiome and selective richness of species in the rhizosphere typically concurs root impairment associated with ARD. However, possible roles of secondary metabolites within these observations remain unstudied.
