Effect of hydrogen index and sodium chloride concentration on bacterioruberin biosynthesis
Processes and Food Production EquipmentThis study investigated the effect of sodium chloride (NaCl) concentration and medium pH on the ability of Arthrobacter agilis wb28 to synthesize bacterioruberin. This compound is a carotenoid in nature and plays a functional role in protecting the cell against environmental stress, including oxidative and osmotic stress; therefore, it has attracted ...

Microbiology, 1989 SUMMARY: Halobacterium cutirubrum was cultured in a complex medium designed for extreme halophiles containing 4 M-NaCl in the absence or presence of bacitracin (7, 14 or 28 μM) with shaking at 37°C for 24 h. Bacitracin at 7 or 14 μM inhibited growth (50% and 100%, respectively), phospholipid synthesis (88% and 96%, respectively) and bacterioruberin ...
