The objective of this study was to evaluate NBPT, zeolite and humic acid in different concentrations as inhibitors of the activity of the enzyme urease. The activity of the urease enzyme was ...

Abstract: A highly sensitive fiber-optic urea sensor was designed and experimentally demonstrated based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect and metal-organic zeolite framework (MOF), [zeolite ...

Urease inhibitors found in protected urea have no significant effect on fungal and bacterial communities, according to a new study by Teagasc. The conducted study demonstrated that there was no impact ...

As soon as urea fertilizer goes down in your field, it begins to disappear, broken down into ammonia gas by the enzyme urease and lost to the atmosphere through a process known as volatilization.

This season, more and more Irish farmers are heeding the advice of Teagasc and switching their nitrogen source from urea or calcium ammonium nitrate (CAN), to protected urea. Here we look at why ...
