A New Era for Using Natural Pigments: The Case of the C50 Carotenoid Called Bacterioruberin
Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 913-926, April 2026.ABSTRACT Haloarchaea are extremophilic microorganisms belonging to the Archaea domain that require high salt concentrations to live, thus inhabiting ecosystems like salty ponds, salty marshes, or extremely salty lagoons. They are more abundant and widely distributed worldwide than initially expected.

Fortifying Honey: The Effects of Blackcurrant Puree on Functional and Sensory Attributes
Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.Honey can serve as a matrix for the development of different functional formulations and food products by adding other plant‐based ingredients. This can further promote consumer acceptance and health‐beneficial value, but also improve product stability. In this case, honey was mixed with a phenolic‐rich blackcurrant puree.

Characterization and synthesis of mono- and diphytanyl ethers of glycerol
Journal of Lipid Research, 1968 The methanolyzed lipids of the extreme halophile, Halobacterium cutirubrum, were separated into glycerol diether and glycerol monoether fractions. The diether was shown by synthesis to be 2,3-di-O-(3′R,7′R,ll′R,15′-tetramethylhexadecyl)-sn-glycerol.
