Ammonia Oxidation

Ammonia Oxidation is a biochemical process within the nitrogen cycle whereby ammonia is selectively converted to nitrite by autotrophic nitrifying bacteria, predominantly species of the genus *Nitrosomonas*, through the mediation of the enzyme ammonia monooxygenase, representing a critical rate-limiting step in nitrification within biological wastewater treatment systems such as trickling filters.
