Abstract
Notice of Retraction
After careful and considered review of the content of this paper by a duly constituted expert committee, this paper has been found to be in violation of IEEE´s Publication Principles.
We hereby retract the content of this paper. Reasonable effort should be made to remove all past references to this paper.
The presenting author of this paper has the option to appeal this decision by contacting TPII@ieee.org.
This paper studies the bioremediation of the atrazine contaminated soil through the high-efficient atrazine degradation strain, W16, isolated and preserved by our team, analyzes the changes in enzyme activities in the soil during the process, and reveals the relationship between soil bioremediation and soil enzyme activities. The results showed that, during the 17 days of culture, the W16´s atrazine-degrading rate was 93.34%. During the bioremediation process in the soil, atrazine had a significant inhibiting effect on the urease and invertase activities (p<;0.05). Strain W16 applied in the soil reduced the inhibiting effect to the control levels, and decreased adverse effect of the atrazine on the urease and invertase activities in the soil. Thereby, the utilization of urea in the soil was raised and the soluble nutrients were increased.
