Abstract Biopolymers, derived from renewable resources such as plants, animals, and microorganisms, are emerging as sustainable alternatives to traditional petroleum‐based polymers. The review examines the key characteristics of biopolymers, including their biodegradability, biocompatibility, and potential for carbon neutrality.

Understanding the tolerance of halophilic archaea to stress landscapes
The tolerance responses of nine Haloarchaea species were analysed under 70 different conditions, including various salinities, temperatures, oxidative stress and the presence of metals. In general, all characterised species tolerated heavy metals, with a particularly striking tolerance to lithium. These results highlight the relevance of Haloarchaea in

Semi‐continuous non‐sterile production of medium chain‐length polyhydroxyalkanoates from fatty acids
Abstract Medium chain‐length polyhydroxyalkanoates (mcl‐PHAs) are efficiently synthesized from fatty acids. It was hypothesized that under non‐axenic conditions, the anti‐microbial properties of fatty acids would reduce growth of microbial competitors and allow Pseudomonas putida LS46 to dominate the population resulting in non‐sterile mcl‐PHA ...

Evaluation of biodecolorization of the textile azo dye by halophilic archaea [PDF]
Introduction: Azo dyes are the biggest group of colors. One of the special characteristic of this group of dye is the presence of double bonds of Nitrogen (N=N). Several studies reported biodecolorization using microorganisms, so far.

Bacillus licheniformis AZU‐A5 produced polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) using cheese whey, achieving a yield of 1.75 g L−1 through Plackett–Burman design and specific factor optimization. Spectroscopy, chromatography, and thermal analysis confirmed the PHA as poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) or P3HB.

Haloarchaea and the Formation of Gas Vesicles
Halophilic Archaea (Haloarchaea) thrive in salterns containing sodium chloride concentrations up to saturation. Many Haloarchaea possess genes encoding gas vesicles, but only a few species, such as Halobacterium salinarum and Haloferax mediterranei ...

The composition of C50 carotenoid bacterioruberin and its derivatives were identified in halophilic archaea Haloferax marinum MBLA0078, which exhibit potent antioxidant properties and protect against lipopolysaccharide‐induced C2C12 myotube atrophy, possibly through Akt/mTOR pathway activation, indicating their potential as natural antioxidants and ...

New insights into Chlorella vulgaris applications
Abstract Environmental pollution is a big challenge that has been faced by humans in contemporary life. In this context, fossil fuel, cement production, and plastic waste pose a direct threat to the environment and biodiversity. One of the prominent solutions is the use of renewable sources, and different organisms to valorize wastes into green energy ...
