Comparison of Oxidation Kinetics of Nitrite-Oxidizing Bacteria: Nitrite Availability as a Key Factor in Niche Differentiation [PDF]
ABSTRACT Nitrification has an immense impact on nitrogen cycling in natural ecosystems and in wastewater treatment plants. Mathematical models function as tools to capture the complexity of these biological systems, but kinetic parameters especially of nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) are lacking because of a limited number of ...

Testing the influence of light on nitrite cycling in the eastern tropical North Pacific [PDF]
Light is considered a strong controlling factor of nitrification rates in the surface ocean. Previous work has shown that ammonia oxidation and nitrite oxidation may be inhibited by high light levels, yet active nitrification has been measured in the ...

A factor that controls maximum cell-specific nitrite oxidation rate was examined using the enrichment culture of Nitrobacter. Increasing or decreasing nitrite loading changed the content of Q-10, which served as a hydrogen carrier in the electron transport chain of Nitrobacter, which varied the maximum cell-specific nitrite oxidation rate. That is, the

Mechanism of Autocatalytic Oxidation of Oxyhemoglobin by Nitrite [PDF]
Oxidation of oxyhemoglobin by nitrite is characterized by the presence of a lag phase followed by autocatalysis. The stoichiometry of the overall reaction is described by the following equation: 4HbO2 + 4NO2- + 4H+ = 4Hb+ + 4NO3- + O2 + 2H2O (Hb denotes hemoglobin monomer).

Simultaneous nitrification and denitrification (SND) is effective and energy-saving for wastewater treatment. As an inevitable intermediate product in the SND process, nitrite affects the efficiency of ammonia oxidation and the composition of nitrifiers.

Metal Nitrite: A Powerful Oxidizing Reagent [PDF]
An efficient and simple source of nitroso reagents and their oxidation reactions are described. The combination of a Lewis acid and a metal nitrite was applied to the oxidation of silyl enol ethers. Amino acid and peptide derivatives were easily accessed through in situ C-C bond cleavage of fully substituted silyl enol ethers upon oxidation.
