Project description:To further explore the biotoxicity mechanisms of CeO2 nanoparticles (NPs) and the recovery strategies of the according impaired Nitrosomonas europaea (N. europaea, ATCC 19718) cells, a genome-sequenced model ammonia oxidizing bacterium (AOB) commonly detected in the activated sludge of biological wastewater treatment plants, the whole-genome microarray analysis was applied to retrieve the induced transcriptional responses, after their physiological and metabolic activities were evealed.
