Nitrite production by ammonia‐oxidizing bacteria mediates chloramine decay and resistance in a mixed‐species community

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, 2020
Summary As water distribution centres increasingly switch to using chloramine to disinfect drinking water, it is of paramount importance to determine the interactions of chloramine with potential biological contaminants, such as bacterial biofilms, that ...

Comparison of Novel and Established Nitrification Inhibitors Relevant to Agriculture on Soil Ammonia- and Nitrite-Oxidizing Isolates

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Nitrification inhibitors (NIs) applied to soil reduce nitrogen fertilizer losses from agro-ecosystems. NIs that are currently registered for use in agriculture appear to selectively inhibit ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB), while their impact on other ...

Commentary on ‘Inhibition by acetylene of ammonia oxidation in Nitrosomonas europaea’ [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 2017
The discovery that acetylene inhibited ammonia oxidation by Nitrosomonas europeae came about by studying linkages of microbial Nitrogen cycling processes in laboratory soil columns. Continuous addition of ammonium chloride (25 μg N/ml) to the soil columns resulted in steady state nitrification of all of the ammonia to nitrate.

Characterization of the gene encoding hydroxylamine oxidoreductase in Nitrosomonas europaea

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1994
Hydroxylamine oxidoreductase (HAO) catalyzes the oxidation of hydroxylamine to nitrite in Nitrosomonas europaea. The electrons released in the reaction are partitioned to ammonium monooxygenase and to the respiratory chain. The immediate acceptor of electrons from HAO is believed to be cytochrome c-554 (Cyt c-554).

Abundance and diversity of bacterial nitrifiers and denitrifiers and their functional genes in tannery wastewater treatment plants revealed by high-throughput sequencing.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Biological nitrification/denitrification is frequently used to remove nitrogen from tannery wastewater containing high concentrations of ammonia. However, information is limited about the bacterial nitrifiers and denitrifiers and their functional genes ...

Whole transcriptome analysis highlights nutrient limitation of nitrogen cycle bacteria in simulated microgravity

open access: yesnpj Microgravity
Regenerative life support systems (RLSS) will play a vital role in achieving self-sufficiency during long-distance space travel. Urine conversion into a liquid nitrate-based fertilizer is a key process in most RLSS.
