The study details how the enzyme - N 2 O reductase - is assembled and offers key insights into its ability to render nitrous oxide into harmless nitrogen and water.

Nitrous Oxide Reductase (N2OR): An enzyme responsible for converting nitrous oxide (N2O) to nitrogen (N2) during bacterial denitrification, utilising copper centres for catalysis.

The study details how the enzyme -- N 2 O reductase -- is assembled and offers key insights into its ability to render nitrous oxide into harmless nitrogen and water. The research was co-led by ...

One of the new companies on hand at the '06 PRI show was Nitrogen Assisted Nitrous Oxide of Lawrence, Kansas. NANO debuted its latest in nitrous-oxide tech-nology at last year's show.

New research reveals how soil bacteria build the only known enzyme for the destruction of the potent global warming and ozone-depleting gas nitrous oxide. Alongside carbon dioxide (CO2) and ...

Though nitrous oxide represents only about 6 percent of all U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, it traps 300 times as much heat as carbon dioxide, according to the EPA.

The work helps clarify the microbial underpinnings of global nitrogen cycling and may provide a new way to think about emissions of nitrous oxide, a potent greenhouse gas, Gowda said.
