Abstract: | Struvite precipitation by 161 bacterial strains isolated from soil and fresh water was analyzed. The results showed that the ability to form struvite is not widespread among these bacteria. Struvite precipitation was influenced by environmental factors and could be enhanced by changing the experimental conditions. There was no clear relationship between the taxonomic status of a given strain and its ability to precipitate struvite. However, bacteria of the genusPseudomonas showed a greater tendency to precipitate struvite than organisms of the remaining genera studied, and five new genera were identified as struvite producers. |
