Modeling

Results

In the figure above, it showed that most nitrates were converted into ammonia. And the productivity of nitrogen was quite low.

After 1440 min(1 day), only 10-12 mM of nitrogen were produced by an E.coli. But if we combined the cell growth of E.coli with the equation, the result would be different.

This figure showed us the relationship between different enzyme concentration and time.

Conclusion

Even though the concentration of nitrogen we produced was low, but the toxicity of ammonia was much lower than the NOx produced by the industrial factories. It might still be a good way to apply our pathway to eliminate the toxic NOx compounds.
