Feast/famine ratio regulates the succession of heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification and autotrophic ammonium oxidizing bacteria in halophilic aerobic granular sludge treating saline wastewater.

Bioresource Technology, 2023
Heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification (HN-AD) shows innovation potential of wastewater treatment process in a single tank. However, how to enrich HN-AD bacteria in activated sludge to enhance their contribution remained unknown.

Halophilic anaerobic fermentative bacteria

Journal of Biotechnology, 2011
In hypersaline environments bacteria are exposed to a high osmotic pressure caused by the surrounding high salt concentrations. Halophilic microorganisms have specific strategies for balancing the osmotic pressure and surviving in these extreme conditions.

Abundance of integrons in halophilic bacteria

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 2022
Integrons are genetic platforms used for expressing open reading frames (ORFs) arranged in gene cassettes. Excision and integration of gene cassettes are controlled by their associated integron integrase (IntI). Using IntegronFinder software, we analyzed all complete halophilic genomes available in the HaloDom database, along with selected partial ...

Production, characterization and bioactivities of biosurfactants from newly isolated strictly halophilic bacteria

Process Biochemistry, 2020
Eight distinct halophilic bacteria isolated from extreme saline soil samples of Khewra Salt Mines, Pakistan, were investigated for biosurfactant production. Isolates were identified by physiological, phenotypic and genetic characterization.

Are extreme halophiles actually “bacteria”?

Journal of Molecular Evolution, 1978
Comparative cataloging of the 16SrRNA of Halobacterium halobium indicates that the organism did not arise, as a halophilic adaptation, from some typical bacterium. Rather, H. halobium is a member of the Archaebacteria, an ancient group of organisms that are no more related to typical bacteria than they are to eucaryotes.

Unveiling Cultivable and Uncultivable Halophilic Bacteria Inhabiting Marakkanam Saltpan, India and Their Potential for Biotechnological Applications

, 2020
The present study aims to characterize cultivable and uncultivable halophilic bacteria inhabiting Marakkanam saltpan located in south India. In addition, cultured bacteria were screened for enzymes of industrial importance, heavy metal tolerance, and ...

Halophilic Acetogenic Bacteria

1994
As outlined in preceding chapters of this book, acetogenic bacteria have a specialized physiological potential for the conservation of energy via the reduction of CO2 to acetate. They also harbor diverse catabolic processes and are found in unusual habitats.

Diversity of extremely halophilic bacteria

Extremophiles, 1998
In this review, the history of the classification of the family Halobacteriaceae, the extremely halophilic aerobic Archaea, is reviewed with some emphasis on the recently described new genera Halobaculum, Halorubrum, Natrialba, Natronomonas, and "Haloterrigena." Speculation is made about the evolutionary relationship between members of the ...

CAROTENOID PIGMENTS OF HALOPHILIC BACTERIA

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1960
The carotenoids of two yellow and four red halophilic bacteria were studied by chromatography on alumina. One yellow organism contained predominantly one pigment, or a group of closely related pigments similar to neurosporene, while the other contained the neurosporene-like pigments and appreciable amounts of an unknown pigment with absorption maxima ...
