| Abstract | Addition of nitrapyrin, allylthiourea, C(inf2)H(inf2), and CH(inf3)F to freshwater sediment slurries inhibited CH(inf4) oxidation and nitrification to similar extents. Dicyandiamide and allylsulfide were less inhibitory for CH(inf4) oxidation than for nitrification. Allylsulfide was the most potent inhibitor of nitrification, and the estimated 50% inhibitory concentrations for this process and CH(inf4) oxidation were 0.2 and 121 (mu)M, respectively. At a concentration of 2 (mu)M allylsulfide, growth and CH(inf4) oxidation activity of Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b were not inhibited. Allylsulfide at 200 (mu)M inhibited the growth of M. trichosporium by approximately 50% but did not inhibit CH(inf4) oxidation activity. Nitrite production by cells of M. trichosporium was not significantly affected by allylsulfide, except at a concentration of 2 mM, when growth and CH(inf4) oxidation were also inhibited by about 50%. Methane monooxygenase activity present in soluble fractions of M. trichosporium was not inhibited significantly by allylsulfide at either 200 (mu)M or 2 mM. These results suggest that the partial inhibition of CH(inf4) oxidation in sediment slurries by high allylsulfide concentrations may be caused by an inhibition of the growth of methanotrophs rather than an inhibition of methane monooxygenase activity specifically. We conclude that allylsulfide is a promising tool for the study of interactions of methanotrophs and nitrifiers in N cycling and CH(inf4) turnover in natural systems. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
