Cryo-electron microscopy of an extremely halophilic microbe: technical aspects [PDF]
Most halophilic Archaea of the class Halobacteriaceae depend on the presence of several molar sodium chloride for growth and cell integrity. This poses problems for structural studies, particularly for electron microscopy, where the high salt ...

STUDYING THE STRUCTURE OF SOIL MICROBIAL COMMUNITY IN SALINE SOILS BY HIGH-THROUGHPUT PYROSEQUENCING
The taxonomic structure of soil microbial community was studied in six samples taken from a salt marsh along the salinity gradient and in two samples of non-saline soils using pyrosequencing method (454 Roche).

Accumulation of Poly(beta-Hydroxybutyrate) by Halobacteria [PDF]
Some species of extremely halophilic archaebacteria, Halobacteriaceae, have been shown to accumulate large amounts of poly(P-hydroxybutyrate) under conditions of nitrogen limitation and abundant carbon source.

New Uses of Haloarchaeal Species in Bioremediation Processes [PDF]
The extreme conditions under which haloarchaea survive make them good bioremediation agents in water treatment processes and in saline and hypersaline environments contaminated with toxic compounds such as nitrate, nitrite and ammonia, chlorine compounds

Structure of 5S ribosomal RNA from Halobacteriaceae
Halophilic bacteria are organisms which require 2-4 M salt for growth. They are members of the archaebacterial kingdom and are related to methanogens and certain thermoacidophiles. They are presently classified as two genera. Halobacterium and Halococcus,

Microbial diversity and microbial abundance in salt-saturated brines: Why are the waters of hypersaline lakes red? [PDF]
Salt-saturated lakes such as the North Arm of Great Salt Lake and saltern crystallizer ponds contain 10-10 and more red microorganisms ml-1. Even the Dead Sea occasionally turns red due to microbial blooms.
