Yes I have measured root exudates. In solution culture, but the roots did exude phytosiderophores and we could measure them by HPLC after derivatizing them. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/11538514_Reversed-phase_liquid_chromatographic_determination_of_phytometallophores_from_Strategy_II_Fe-uptake_species_by_9-fluorenylmethyl_chloroformate_fluorescence
Thank you Mathew. We will read your technique immediately. With the best regards, José...
Dear: Dr. Jose
it's a good question, I'm also, looking for the proper technique to determine root growth of trees in the soil.
