The Nitrite Oxidizing Activity of<i>Nitrobacter</i>Strains as a Base of Microbial Biosensor for Nitrite Detection

Abstract

ABSTRACT Parameters of three Nitrobacter based sensor models have been studied for the purpose of creation of a nitrite analyzer that could be used for assay of nitroaromatics. It was shown that the sensor based on N. vulgaris strain was most suitable for development of such a device. The sensor possessed high Key words:: microbial biosensor Nitrobacter strainsnitritenitroaromatic compounds
