Nitrotoga
Specific identification and quantification of nitrite-oxidizing bacteria
of the genus Candidatus Nitrotoga in activated sludge
Item-no.: 01130008
Laboratory analysis: Detection of Nitrotoga
The laboratory analysis VIT® Nitrotoga enables the identification and quantification of nitrite oxidizers of the genus Nitrotoga. This bacterial population is characterized by its exceptional resilience to low temperatures and extreme conditions. Nitrotoga is directly detected and quantitatively evaluated in the wastewater sample.
The laboratory analysis is ideal for monitoring nitrification processes. Since Nitrotoga operates stably even under challenging conditions, early detection provides valuable insights for preventing disturbances and optimizing process control.
