| nitrogen fixation |
The incorporation of gaseous molecular nitrogen, N 2 , into nitrogenous compounds. Abiotic fixation of N 2 occurs via lightning and photochemical conversion in the atmosphere. Biotic fixation of N 2 is done by specialized bacteria that construct the hemoglobin-like enzymes necessary to cleave the strong triple bond of molecular nitrogen.

| nitrous acid |
1. Weak acid formed in solution by neutralization of the nitrite ion. Also formed when nitrogen dioxide, NO 2 , dissolves in water. 2. Gaseous compound, formula HONO, that builds up in polluted, typically urban air, containing nitrogen oxides. The only known gas-phase reaction leading to its formation, that between hydroxyl radicals (OH) and nitric oxide (NO), is not rapid enough to account for observed levels, and the formation is thus thought to involve particles. ...

| nitrous oxide |
Colorless gas, formula N 2 O, released by bacterial activity at the earth's surface. It has an atmospheric lifetime of about 160 years and is currently present at a level of about 330 ppb. Its atmospheric significance is that it is transported into the stratosphere, where its reaction with excited oxygen atoms (O 1 D) is the major source of active nitrogen; it is also a major greenhouse gas. In large amounts, it has anesthetic properties (laughing gas).

| nitrocellulose |
A nitrated derivative of cellulose. It is made into membrane filters of defined porosity, used to immobilize DNA, RNA or protein, which can then be probed with a labelled sequence or antibody. These filters have a variety of uses in molecular biology, particularly in nucleic acid hybridization experiments. Used extensively in the Southern and northern blotting procedures involving DNA and RNA.

| nitrogen fixation |
The conversion of atmospheric nitrogen (N 2 ) into oxidized forms that can be assimilated by plants. Biological nitrogen fixation is catalysed by the enzyme nitrogenase, which is found only in prokaryotes. Certain blue-green algae and some genera of bacteria (eg, Rhizobium spp.; Azotobacter spp.) are capable of biochemically fixing nitrogen. Such bacteria are very important symbionts for plants growing in nitrogen-poor soils.
