The litho is a word with a Greek root meaning stone, thus this group of bacteria is called stone eaters (2). University, Rohtak. Denitrification refers to the reduction of NO3- to gaseous nitrogen compounds, such as N2. The term chemolithotrophy describes the energy metabolism of bacteria that can, in the absence of light, use the oxidation of inorganic substances as a source of energy for cell biosynthesis and maintenance (Rittenberg, 1969).
