Kinetics of nitrite oxidation by Nitrobacter winogradskyi.
Preliminary data on the kinetics of the oxidation of nitrite by Nitrobacter were presented by Laudelout & van Tichelen (1960). The present observations complete and extend the results concerning the effects of pH, concentrations of nitrite and of nitrate, temperature and oxygen partial pressure on the parameters of the rate equation for the oxidation of nitrite by intact cells and cell-free ext...
متن کاملKinetics of the nitrite oxidation by Nitrobacter winogradskyi.
Few quantitative studies of the biological oxidation of nitrite by Nitrobacter have been made, although this process is important in nature. Without it, the concentration of nitrite produced by the oxidation of ammonia would soon reach toxic levels in water or in the soil. The influence of temperature and substrate concentration on the rate of this reaction has never been quantitatively studied...
متن کاملNitrite oxidase and nitrate reductase in Nitrobacter agilis.
Nitrite oxidase and nitrate reductase in Nitrobacter agilis were shown to be separate enzymes. The best separation of the two systems was achieved by ammonium sulphate fractionation. The effects of various compounds, including antimycin A, 2-n-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline N-oxide and chlorate, also clearly distinguish between the two enzyme reactions. The relationship between the two opposing reac...
متن کاملThe P aracoccus denitrificans NarK‐like nitrate and nitrite transporters—probing nitrate uptake and nitrate/nitrite exchange mechanisms
Nitrate and nitrite transport across biological membranes is often facilitated by protein transporters that are members of the major facilitator superfamily. Paracoccus denitrificans contains an unusual arrangement whereby two of these transporters, NarK1 and NarK2, are fused into a single protein, NarK, which delivers nitrate to the respiratory nitrate reductase and transfers the product, nitr...
متن کاملNitrite and nitrate as electron acceptors for biological sulphide oxidation.
Autotrophic denitrification with sulphide using nitrate (R1) and nitrite (R2) as electron acceptor was investigated at bench scale. Different solids retention times (SRT) (5 and 20 d) have been tested in R1 while R2 was operated at SRT=13 d. The results indicated that the process allows complete sulphide removal to be achieved in all tested conditions. Tested sulphide loads were estimated from ...
