Effect of azo dye on ammonium oxidation process and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) in soil

Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) play a key role in the production of nitrate-N (NO3 �-N) in terrestrial ecosystems. A study was planned with the aim of assessing the effect of azo dyes released by textile and dyestuff industries on the NH4 +-N oxidation process in soil. The data was analyzed statis...
