author keywords: Glucose; glycolysis; nitrification; immobilization; amendment; acidifier; poultry; manure
MeSH headings : Air Pollutants / analysis; Air Pollutants / metabolism; Ammonia / analysis; Ammonia / metabolism; Animals; Biodegradation, Environmental; Chickens; Glucose / metabolism; Manure / analysis; Nitrification; Nitrogen / analysis; Nitrogen / metabolism; Poultry
TL;DR: More research on cost-effective labile carbon sources and higher application rates are required to achieve greater NH3 reduction and the effectiveness of glucose in reducing NH3 emission could have been due to greater N immobilization and nitrification vs. the other treatments.
