[18] Nitrospira inopinata

Dieses Bakterium kann die vollständige Oxidation von Ammoniak zu Nitrat durchführen. Dieser als Nitrifikation bezeichnete Prozess ist Teil des Stickstoffkreislaufs und wichtig für die biologische Abwasserreinigung.
Comic des 16. Adventtürchens mit einem freundlichen Bakterium mit roter Weihnachtsmütze und einer dünnen Geißel. Dazu zwei gelbe Sterne und ein symbolischer Weihnachtsbaum. Von @Malo82.
