Ammonia or Ammonium Ion as Substrate for Oxidation by Nitrosomonas europaea Cells and Extracts
AUTOR(ES)
Suzuki, Isamu
RESUMO
The effect of pH on the Km values for ammonia was studied in its oxidation by Nitrosomonas cells and cell-free extracts. The Km values decreased markedly with increasing pH, suggesting (NH3) rather than (NH4+) as the actual substrate for oxidation.
