The effect of stocking density and the application of Nitrobacter as ammonia decomposer in aquaponics system of Clarias gariepinus with water spinach (Ipomoea aquatica) [PDF]
This study aimed to determine the effect of Nitrobacter bacteria on specific growth rate (SGR), survival rate (SR), and feed convertion ratio (FCR) of African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) in aquaponics systems.

Enrichment and identification of a moderately acidophilic nitrite-oxidizing bacterium [PDF]
This study enriched a novel nitrite-oxidizing bacterium (NOB, ‘Candidatus Nitrobacter acidophilus’) in a laboratory reactor operating at pH 4.5 for treating low-strength ammonia wastewater. Batch experiments showed that ‘Ca. N.

Competition betweenNitrospira spp. andNitrobacter spp. in nitrite-oxidizing bioreactors [PDF]
In this work the question was addressed if in nitrite-oxidizing activated sludge systems the environmental competition between Nitrobacterspp. and Nitrospira spp., which only recently has been discovered to play a role in these systems, is affected by ...

Isolation and characterization of pure cultures for metabolizing 1,4-dioxane in oligotrophic environments [PDF]
1,4-Dioxane concentration in most contaminated water is much less than 1 mg/L, which cannot sustain the growth of most reported 1,4-dioxane-metabolizing pure cultures.

Lack of Distinction Between Nitrobacter agilis and Nitrobacter winogradskyi [PDF]
No adequate criteria were established to distinguish between Nitrobacter agilis and N. winogradskyi . However, very gentle preparative techniques permitted demonstration of flagella in N. agilis .

Comparative studies on membrane proteins of Nitrobacter hamburgensis and Nitrobacter winogradskyi [PDF]
The inner membranes (i.e. cytoplasmic and intracytoplasmic membranes, IM) of autotrophically, mixotrophically, and heterotrophically grown cells of Nitrobacter hamburgensis were characterized with respect to their nitrite oxidase activity, density, and protein pattern as revealed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis.
