Biotechnological applications of extremophiles, extremozymes and extremolytes [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2015
In the last decade, attention to extreme environments has increased because of interests to isolate previously unknown extremophilic microorganisms in pure culture and to profile their metabolites. Microorganisms that live in extreme environments produce extremozymes and extremolytes that have the potential to be valuable resources for the development ...
