Screening and characterization of bacteria that can utilize ammonium and nitrate ions simultaneously under controlled cultural conditions
Eighteen bacterial stock cultures were examined for their ability to utilize NH4+and NO3-simultaneously in a medium containing NH4NO3with shaking using a test tube capped with a cotton stopper. Pseudomonas aeruginosa NBRC 12689 utilized 1 mg/ml of NH4NO3most rapidly of the cultures tested. The bacte...
