Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the inhibitory effects of 20 different substances on the anaerobic ammonia oxidation (anammox) process in a culture dominated by Candidatus Brocadia using a nitrogen tracer technique.
- Among these, 18 substances including various metals, chelators, and organic solvents were found to inhibit anammox activity, while Cu and Mn did not have an immediate effect.
- Notably, the study introduced the inhibitory effects of certain chelators and solvents for the first time, revealing that copper had a delayed inhibitory effect that became apparent after 240 minutes.
