Ground-state disulfide dissociation is a target of prime importance in structural biochemistry. A main difficulty consists in avoiding competition with carbon–sulfur and backbone scission pathways. In tandem mass spectrometry, such selectivity is afforded using transition elements or coinage-metal ions as

Streptomyces sp. TD-1 was identified as Streptomyces alboflavus based on its morphological characteristics, physiological properties, and 16S rDNA gene sequence analysis. The antifungal activity of the volatile-producing S. alboflavus TD-1 was investigated. Results showed that volatiles generated by S. alboflavus
