Halotolerant Collagenolytic Activity of Achromobacter iophagus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1973
SUMMARY: A strain of Achromobacter iophagus isolated from cured hides was shown to lyse collagen rapidly under aerobic conditions. Changes of temperature, pH, NaCl or collagen concentration affected either the maximum rate of collagen lysis or the lag before this rate was attained, or both. Collagenolytic activity occurred in 0.85 to 10% (w/v) NaCl.

Bacterial Growth in Chloride and Perchlorate Brines: Halotolerances and Salt Stress Responses of Planococcus halocryophilus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Extraterrestrial environments encompass physicochemical conditions and habitats that are unknown on Earth, such as perchlorate-rich brines that can be at least temporarily stable on the martian surface.

Sequestration of CO2 by halotolerant algae [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Health Science and Engineering, 2014
Abstract The potential of halotolerant algae isolated from natural resources was used to study CO2 fixation and algal lipid production. Biological fixation of CO2 in photobioreactor in presence of salinity is exploited. The CO2 concentration 1060 ppm gave the highest biomass yield (700 mg dry wt/l), the highest total lipid content (10.33 ...

Characterization of a Novel, Cold-Adapted, and Thermostable Laccase-Like Enzyme With High Tolerance for Organic Solvents and Salt and Potent Dye Decolorization Ability, Derived From a Marine Metagenomic Library

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Synthetic dyes are widely used in many industries, but they cause serious environmental problems due to their carcinogenic and mutagenic properties. In contrast to traditional physical and chemical treatments, biodegradation is generally considered an ...

Isolation and Characterization of a Novel Cold-Active, Halotolerant Endoxylanase from Echinicola rosea Sp. Nov. JL3085T

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2020
We cloned a xylanase gene (xynT) from marine bacterium Echinicola rosea sp. nov. JL3085T and recombinantly expressed it in Escherichia coli BL21. This gene encoded a polypeptide with 379 amino acid residues and a molecular weight of ~43 kDa.

ABIOTIC STRESS RESPONSE-ASSOCIATED PROTEINS IN A SALT TOLERANT STRAIN OF THE CYANOBACTERIUM FREMYELLA DIPLOSIPHON: A POTENTIAL BIOFUEL AGENT

open access: yesJournal of Construction Project Management and Innovation, 2021
Cyanobacteria have gained great significance as a clean green alternative to fossil fuels as they are renewable and sustainable. Fremyella diplosiphon is a potential biofuel-producing cyanobacterium that efficiently captures light energy for ...

Growth performance, biochemical composition and sedimentation velocity of Tetraselmis sp. CTP4 under different salinities using low-cost lab- and pilot-scale systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Biomass harvesting is one of the most expensive steps of the whole microalgal production pipeline. Therefore, the present work aimed to understand the effect of salinity on the growth performance, biochemical composition and sedimentation velocity of ...

Salinity Acclimation Strategies in Nitrifying Bioreactors

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Several industries, including aquaculture, produce effluents with high or varying salt concentrations. The treatment of such effluents by the biological nitrification process can be challenging, as the microbes performing this process are sensitive to ...

A haloarchaeal ferredoxin electron donor that plays an essential role in nitrate assimilation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In the absence of ammonium, many organisms, including the halophilic archaeon Haloferax volcanii DS2 (DM3757), may assimilate inorganic nitrogen from nitrate or nitrite, using a ferredoxin-dependent assimilatory NO3-/NO2- reductase pathway.
