Development of a M9‐based urea medium (M9U) for sensitive and real‐time monitoring of ureolytic activity of bacteria and cell‐free urease
Abstract The enzyme urease is widespread in nature and catalyzes the hydrolysis of urea to form ammonia and carbonic acid. The high proficiency of the enzyme is associated with a wide range of societal challenges. In agriculture, bacterial urease activity leads to loss of fertilizer through NH3 emis...
