Transcriptional and physiological response of Nitrosomonas europaea to inhibition by chlorinated aromatics and heavy metals

Creator:

Sandborgh, Sean C.

Abstract:

This research investigates the physiological and transcriptional responses of Nitrosomonas europaea when exposed to chlorinated aromatic compounds and heavy metals under varying environmental conditions. It was found that transcriptional responses of identified sentinel genes correlate well with nitrification inhibition. Sorption of metals to biomass was also investigated and found not...
