Carotenoids from Haloarchaea and Their Potential in Biotechnology [PDF]

Marine Drugs, 2015
The production of pigments by halophilic archaea has been analysed during the last half a century. The main reasons that sustains this research are: (i) many haloarchaeal species possess high carotenoids production availability; (ii) downstream processes

Distribution of Denitrification among Haloarchaea: A Comprehensive Study [PDF]

Microorganisms, 2021
Microorganisms from the Halobacteria class, also known as haloarchaea, inhabit a wide range of ecosystems of which the main characteristic is the presence of high salt concentration.

Phylogenomics of Haloarchaea: The Controversy of the Genera Natrinema-Haloterrigena

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The haloarchaeal genera Natrinema and Haloterrigena were described almost simultaneously by two different research groups and some strains studied separately were described as different species of these genera.

The human gut archaeome: identification of diverse haloarchaea in Korean subjects [PDF]

Microbiome, 2020
Background Archaea are one of the least-studied members of the gut-dwelling autochthonous microbiota. Few studies have reported the dominance of methanogens in the archaeal microbiome (archaeome) of the human gut, although limited information regarding ...

Haloarchaea as emerging big players in future polyhydroxyalkanoate bioproduction: Review of trends and perspectives

Current Research in Biotechnology, 2022
Haloarchaea comprise the extremely halophilic branch of the phylum Euryarchaeota and they are members of the prokaryotic domain Archaea. They thrive best in extremely saline habitats with salt concentrations of 2–5 mol L–1 NaCl, and thus under conditions

Bioactive molecules from haloarchaea: Scope and prospects for industrial and therapeutic applications

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Marine environments and salty inland ecosystems encompass various environmental conditions, such as extremes of temperature, salinity, pH, pressure, altitude, dry conditions, and nutrient scarcity.

Production of Polyhydroxyalkanoates in Unsterilized Hyper-Saline Medium by Halophiles Using Waste Silkworm Excrement as Carbon Source

Molecules, 2021
The chlorophyll ethanol-extracted silkworm excrement was hardly biologically reused or fermented by most microorganisms. However, partial extremely environmental halophiles were reported to be able to utilize a variety of inexpensive carbon sources to ...
