Stimulatory effect of xenobiotics on oxidative electron transport of chemolithotrophic nitrifying bacteria used as biosensing element.
Electron transport chain (ETCh) of ammonium (AOB) and nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB) participates in oxidation of ammonium to nitrate (nitrification). Operation of ETCh may be perturbed by a range of water-soluble xenobiotics. Therefore, consortia of nitrifying bacteria may be used as a biosensor...
