Stability of thirteen antimicrobials in incurred samples of animal tissues, milk, eggs, and honey after freeze-storage.

Monitoring of antimicrobials residues in food of animal origin is performed by control laboratories to ensure public health, and knowledge of the stability of antimicrobials during storage is essential for the reliability of results. For stability studies, analysis of incurred samples is preferential to fortified samples due to the possible conversion of antimicrobial metabolites back to parent compounds during sample preparation, storage, and analysis of the incurred samples, resulting in an increased concentration of the analyte. We have analyzed the concentrations of 13 antimicrobials from 8 groups (tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones, phenicols, sulfonamides, aminoglycosides, penicillins, macrolides, and nitroimidazoles) at different time points of freeze-storage (1 week; 1, 2, and 3 months) using HPLC-MS/MS.

Enhancement of the Plant Grafting Technique with Dielectric Barrier Discharge Cold Atmospheric Plasma and Plasma-Treated Solution.

A garden plant grafting technique enhanced by cold plasma (CAP) and plasma-treated solutions (PTS) is described for the first time. It has been shown that CAP created by a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) and PTS makes it possible to increase the growth of L. by 35-44%, and the diameter of the root collar by 10-28%.

Increase of Productivity and Neutralization of Pathological Processes in Plants of Grain and Fruit Crops with the Help of Aqueous Solutions Activated by Plasma of High-Frequency Glow Discharge.

In this work, we, for the first time, manufactured a plasma-chemical reactor operating at a frequency of 0.11 MHz. The reactor allows for the activation of large volumes of liquids in a short time.
