Effects of Salts on the Activity and Growth of “Candidatus Scalindua sp.”, a Marine Anammox Bacterium

Four salts, SEALIFE (a synthetic sea salt), NaCl, Na(2)SO(4), and NaCl+KCl, were applied to monitor the effects of salinity on “Candidatus Scalindua sp.”, a marine anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) bacterium. The highest ammonium consumption of 10 μmol mg protein(−1) d(−1) was observed at 88 mm...

Descripción
Sumario:Four salts, SEALIFE (a synthetic sea salt), NaCl, Na(2)SO(4), and NaCl+KCl, were applied to monitor the effects of salinity on “Candidatus Scalindua sp.”, a marine anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) bacterium. The highest ammonium consumption of 10 μmol mg protein(−1) d(−1) was observed at 88 mmol L(−1) of Na in the presence of NaCl. The highest inorganic carbon uptake of 0.6 μmol mg protein(−1) d(−1) was observed at 117 mmol L(−1) of Na and at 16 mmol L(−1) of K in the presence of NaCl+KCl. Thus, Na and K are both important for maintaining a high growth rate of “Candidatus Scalindua sp.”
