Classification of eight new species of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria: Nitrosomonas communis sp. nov., Nitrosomonas ureae sp. nov., Nitrosomonas aestuarii sp. nov., Nitrosomonas marina sp. nov., Nitrosomonas nitrosa sp. nov., Nitrosomonas eutropha sp. nov., Nitrosomonas oligotropha sp. nov. and Nitrosomonas halophila sp. nov. [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1991 Summary: A total of 13 species of lithotrophic ammonia-oxidizing bacteria assigned to the genus Nitrosomonas were characterized. DNA homologies, G + C content of the DNA, shape and ultrastructure of the cells, salt requirements, ammonia tolerance, utilization of urea as ammonia source, and whole-cell protein patterns were analysed.

Diversity and characterization of the ammonia-oxidizing bacteria responsible for nitrification in tea field soils [PDF]
Scientific ReportsAmmonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB), ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA), and comammox Nitrospira have been considered to coexist in acidic soils, oxidizing ammonia within their respective niches.

Inhibition of Targeted Bacterial Growth Using MazF-Expressing Phagemids: A Novel Therapeutic Approach Based on Endoribonuclease Toxin Molecules. [PDF]
Microbiol ImmunolABSTRACT The extensive and indiscriminate use of antibiotics, which are intended to halt bacterial growth or eliminate them, has unintentionally given rise to antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which is a critical threat to global health. In the pursuit of alternative solutions, researchers have focused on type II toxin–antitoxin systems prevalent within ...

Comparative enrichment of complete ammonium oxidation bacteria in floccular sludge reactors: Sequencing batch reactor vs. continuous stirred tank reactor [PDF]
Water Research XThis study attempted to compare the enrichment of complete ammonium oxidation (comammox) bacteria, which are affiliated with Nitrospira and not able to generate nitrous oxide (N2O, a potent greenhouse gas) through biological pathways, in two commonly ...

Preservation of Nitrosomonas [PDF]
Nature, 1957 IN a communication under this title in Nature of April 13, Mr. K. Gundersen concludes that preservation under paraffin oil seems to be more promising than any other method used. He was evidently not aware that I mentioned in an article in Nature of February 12, 1955, the use of mineral oil for the maintenance of crude and pure cultures of nitrifying ...
