ENRICHING THE CULTURE OF AMMONIA OXIDIZING BACTERIA FROM SOIL AND FISHPOND WITH BIO-FILTERS

A special group of microorganisms, which are called ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB), is capable to reduce ammonia-nitrogen from the ecosystem. However, this bacterium is slow growing and has a low yield capacity. Hence, the objective of this research was to grow the AOB using a support medium in th...
