Alkaliphiles and Acidophiles in Nanotechnology
, 2016 Acidophiles and alkaliphiles have been exploited for the synthesis of nanoparticles. The nanomaterial synthesizing biocomponents of these microorganisms have an added advantage of providing excellent stability to the nanomaterial being synthesized.

, 2000 Acidophilic microorganisms that oxidize mineral sulfides are of obvious biogeochemical significance in their natural habitats and are increasingly being utilized commercially in mineral sulfide processing. However, few studies have focused on their taxonomy and phylogeny, hence there are unresolved questions in these areas.

Life in acid: pH homeostasis in acidophiles
Trends in Microbiology, 2007 Microorganisms that have a pH optimum for growth of less than pH 3 are termed "acidophiles". To grow at low pH, acidophiles must maintain a pH gradient of several pH units across the cellular membrane while producing ATP by the influx of protons through ...

The resilience and versatility of acidophiles that contribute to the bio‐assisted extraction of metals from mineral sulphides [PDF]
Environmental Technology (United Kingdom), 2010 In this paper, a brief outline is presented on acidic ferric ion oxidation of mineral sulphides for the extraction of metals in both stirred tank reactors for mineral concentrates and heaps for low-grade ores.
