PENAPISAN BAKTERI PENDEGRADASI TOTAL AMMONIA NITROGEN DARI SEDIMEN TAMBAK TRADISIONAL UDANG WINDU (Penaeus monodon)

Abstrak: Bioremediation is an effort to reduce pond waste pollution by exploiting the ability of microorganisms. The purpose of this study was to find the candidates of bioremediation bacterial isolates that were able to degrade the total ammonia nitro-gen from the traditional pond sediment. Se-diment was taken from three tiger shrimp ponds in Mulyosari, Pasir Sakti, of East Lampung. Distances of each ponds from co-astal area were TI (600 m), T2 (1.200 m) and TII (1.800 m), respectively. Phenate method was used to test TAN degrading apa-bility. The result showed that three of the best isolates were most able to reduce TAN, namely TI6, TI1, and TII5. Those isolates were able to degrade TAN 0,10; 0,06 and 0,06 mg/L, respectively. Those three isola-tes were identified as genus Campylobacter, Listeria and Nitrosococcus.
