Description
Chen and a large team report in twenty twenty-six a bacterial strain from river-mouth mud that can strip nitrogen from water in a single step. Excess nitrogen from human activity harms lakes, rivers, and seas worldwide. Most microbes need separate air-rich and air-poor stages to remove it, which makes treatment slow and complex.
Their strain used all three common nitrogen forms with high removal rates in lab tests. It cleared total nitrogen faster than many like strains reported before. Gene checks confirmed the full set of tools for both steps of the process. It also worked well across a wide range of conditions. The authors offer it as a strong candidate for cleaning nitrogen-rich waters.
