Influences of organic nitrogen on the removal of inorganic nitrogen from complicated marine aquaculture water by Marichromatium gracile YL28
The sediment-water interface is not only an important location for substrate conversion in a mariculture system, but also a major source of eutrophication. This study aimed to clarify the characteristics of inorganic nitrogen (ammonia, nitrite and nitrate) removal by Marichromatium gracile YL28 in the presence of both organic nitrogen and inorganic nitrogen. The results showed that, in the presence of peptone or urea, seaweed oligosaccharides (SOS) effectively enhanced the ammonia removal capacity of YL28 (6.42 mmol/L) and decreased the residual rate by 54.04% or 8.17%, respectively. With increasing peptone or urea concentrations, the removal of both ammonia and nitrate was gradually inhibited, and the residual rates of ammonia and nitrate reached 22.56-34.36% and 12.03-15.64% in the peptone system and 20.65-24.03% and 12.20-13.21% in the urea system, respectively. However, in the control group the residual rates of ammonia and nitrate reached 11.97% and 5.12%, respectively. In addition, the concentrations of peptone and urea did not affect nitrite removal, and YL28 displayed better cell growth and nitrogen removal activity in the presence of bait and SOS. Overall, the ability of YL28 to remove inorganic nitrogen was enhanced in the presence of organic nitrogen. (C) 2020, The Society for Biotechnology, Japan. All rights reserved.
