Application of Neesler reagent in the ammonium quantification used in the fermentations of biotechnology products

The ammonium salts are used in fermentations to supplement the deficient amounts of nitrogen and stabilize the pH of the culture medium. The excess ammonium ion exerts a detrimental effect on the fermentation process inhibiting microbial growth. An analytical method based on Neesler reagent was deve...
