Nitrite-driven anaerobic ethane oxidation
Environmental Science and EcotechnologyEthane, the second most abundant gaseous hydrocarbon in vast anoxic environments, is an overlooked greenhouse gas. Microbial anaerobic oxidation of ethane can be driven by available electron acceptors such as sulfate and nitrate. However, despite nitrite

Electrocatalytical Nitrite Oxidation via Manganese and Copper Oxides on Carbon Screen-Printed Electrode [PDF]
SensorsNitrite (NO2−) has long been recognized as a contaminant of concern due to its detrimental effects on both human health and the environment. As a result, there is a continuing need to develop sensitive, real-time, low-cost, and portable systems for the ...

Kinetic plasticity of nitrite-oxidizing bacteria containing cytoplasmic nitrite oxidoreductase. [PDF]
ISME JAbstract Nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) use either periplasmic (pNXR) or cytoplasmic (cNXR) nitrite oxidoreductase to oxidize nitrite, and this distinction influences nitrite affinity and energy yield. cNXR-containing NOB have historically been considered low-affinity, copiotrophic nitrifiers adapted to high nitrite and neutral pH ...

Controls on nitrite oxidation in the upper Southern Ocean: insights from winter kinetics experiments in the Indian sector [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2022 Across the Southern Ocean in winter, nitrification is the dominant mixed-layer nitrogen cycle process, with some of the nitrate produced therefrom persisting to fuel productivity during the subsequent growing season.

Microbiology of a Nitrite-Oxidizing Bioreactor [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1998 ABSTRACT The microbiology of the biomass from a nitrite-oxidizing sequencing batch reactor (NOSBR) fed with an inorganic salts solution and nitrite as the sole energy source that had been operating for 6 months was investigated by microscopy, by culture-dependent methods, and by molecular biological methods, and the seed sludge ...

Nitrite cycling in the primary nitrite maxima of the eastern tropical North Pacific [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2023 The primary nitrite maximum (PNM) is a ubiquitous feature of the upper ocean, where nitrite accumulates in a sharp peak at the base of the euphotic zone.
