Carotenoid production by Haloferax mediterranei using starch residues from the candy industry as a carbon source

Current Research in Biotechnology
Carotenoids are pigments attracting the attention of several industries due to their antioxidant, biological and coloring properties. Low-cost substrates, such as agro-industrial wastes, are being investigated as a viable option to reduce microbial ...

Metataxonomy and pigments analyses unravel microbial diversity and the relevance of retinal-based photoheterotrophy at different salinities in the Odiel Salterns (SW, Spain) [PDF]

Salinity has a strong influence on microorganisms distribution patterns and consequently on the relevance of photoheterotrophic metabolism, which since the discovery of proteorhodopsins is considered the main contributor to solar energy capture on the ...

Bacterioruberin extracts from a genetically modified hyperpigmented Haloferax volcanii strain: antioxidant activity and bioactive properties on sperm cells

Journal of Applied Microbiology, 2019
To examine the antioxidant activity of Bacterioruberin (Bctr)-rich extracts isolated from a hyperpigmented, genetically modified Haloferax volcanii strain (HVLON3) and to investigate the effect on cold-sensitive ram sperm cells.The strain HVLON3 produces higher Bctr amounts than most haloarchaea (220 ± 13 mg g-1 DW).

Diversity of UV Resistance in the Halophilic Archaea [PDF]

, 2018
Members of halophilic archaea, like Halobacterium, are remarkably resistant to ultraviolet light (UV). However, it is unclear to what extent other halophilic archaea share this phenotype, despite the common generalization that halophilic archaea are UV ...
