Characterizing the growth of PHA-producing microorganisms on short-chain carboxylic acids
Microbial Cell FactoriesShort-chain carboxylic acids are important chemical intermediates in anaerobic treatment or thermal hydrolysis of biowaste. They are a crucial precursor for the production of Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) by various microorganisms. However, there is limited

Evidence from phylogenetic and genome fingerprinting analyses suggests rapidly changing variation in Halorubrum and Haloarcula populations [PDF]
, 2014 Halobacteria require high NaCl concentrations for growth and are the dominant inhabitants of hypersaline environments above 15% NaCl. They are well documented to be highly recombinogenic, both in frequency and in the range of exchange partners.

Carotenoids from Haloarchaea and Their Potential in Biotechnology
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

Journal of Bacteriology, 1990 DNA restriction pattern modifications were detected when Haloferax mediterranei was grown in low (10%) salt concentrations. After cells were grown again in optimal (25%) salt concentrations, the original pattern was recovered. These salt-associated DNA modifications were revealed with 5% of the 160 DNA fragments cloned and used as probes in ...
