Abstract

The inhibitory effects of nitrate on Fe(III) and humic acid reduction were examined in Shewanella putrefaciens DK-1. Therer is no difference in Fe(III) reduction until 25 hours between cultures using Fe(III) production was decreased drastically when Fe(III) and nitrate were used as electron acceptors. The production of AHQDS(2,6-anthrahydroquinon disulfonate) showed similar patterns when AQDS alone and both AQDS and Fe(III) were used as electron acceptors. When AQDS(2,6-anthraquinon disulfonate) and nitrate were used as electron acceptors, the production of AHQDS was completely inhibited.
