Simple and sensitive spectrophotometric method for estimating the nitrogen-fixing capacity of bacterial cultures
Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) is a process through which a group of microorganisms called diazotrophs convert unassimilable atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia. In aqueous media, ammonia yields ammonium ions that can be assimilated by microorganisms and plants. To reduce the application of nitrog...
