โœฆ Synopsis

The algal symbiont of Azolla -Anabaena azollae (AS-DS) and free-living A.variabilis (SAo) colonized and immobilized well in all the solid matrices such as hollow fibre, polyurethane foam, cotton and silk cotton. Biomass production was more under immobilized state than under freeliving state. Heterocyst frequency, nitrogen fixing activity and ammonia excretion were significantly higher under immobilized state than under free-living conditions.

Monopterus albus has to deal with high environmental ammonia concentrations during dry seasons and agricultural fertilization in rice fields. In this study, NH 4 HCO 3 (10 mmol per g fish) was injected into the peritoneal cavity of M. albus, raising the level of ammonia in the body, in order to eluc
