The cells of ‘super dodgers’ know SARS-CoV-2 as the enemy thanks to seasonal colds.
Wide adoption of algae cultivation to produce environmentally sustainable biofuels and fine chemicals is currently hampered by large losses (10 to 30%) incurred by grazer infections. We show the usage of real-time chemical ionization mass spectrometry to rapidly identify gaseous indicators of grazer infections in cyanobacteria cultures. Grazing was detected significantly faster (up to 3 d) using real-time mass spectrometry than the current methods of microscopy and qPCR. By employing this technology, cultivators may be empowered to treat grazer infestations sooner, thereby protecting the crop ...
