This dataset contains cellular carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) measurements of marine nitrifiers. These data were generated through experiments conducted at the University of California, Santa Barbara over a period of time from March 2018 to August 2021.
100-500 mL of culture was filtered onto combusted (450°C, 4h) glass fiber filters (Advantec, GF-75, 25mm). Filters were acidified with HCl (10% v/v), dried (60°C, 24 h), and packed into tin capsules prior to being analyzed on a CHN elemental analyzer (Exeter Analytical, CEC 440HA). The instrument was calibrated with acetanilide following manufacturer protocols.
A detailed description of materials and methods can be found in Bayer et al. 2022.
