Metabolic Potential of Microbial Communities in the Hypersaline Sediments of the Bonneville Salt Flats

open access: yesmSystems, 2022
The Bonneville Salt Flats (BSF) appear to be entirely desolate when viewed from above, but they host rich microbial communities just below the surface salt crust. In this study, we investigated the metabolic potential of the BSF microbial ecosystem.

Glycerol metabolism in hypersaline environments [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, 2016
Summary Glycerol is a key compound for the understanding of the microbiology of hypersaline environments. At the highest salt concentrations the main or even sole primary producer is the green unicellular alga Dunaliella , which uses photosynthetically produced glycerol as ...

Multimodal Locomotion in Insect‐Inspired Microrobots: A Review of Strategies for Aerial, Surface, Aquatic, and Interfacial Motion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

Biodiversity and culture of prokaryotes inhabiting haloalkaline and meromictic Soap Lake, Washington, USA

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Despite their potential for harboring novel microorganisms exhibiting beneficial metabolisms or that produce useful products for biotechnology and industry, alkaline lakes and soils are among the least studied extreme environments.

Asking the 5 W's for designing next‐generation bioprocessing

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Biotechnology is expanding beyond traditional, centralized fermentation and toward next‐generation bioprocessing paradigms that emphasize flexible deployment outside the laboratory with application‐specific performance. However, many bioprocesses fail to translate beyond proof‐of‐concept into industrially viable systems because early design ...

Understanding Fungi in Glacial and Hypersaline Environments

open access: yesAnnual Review of Microbiology, 2023
Hypersaline waters and glacial ice are inhospitable environments that have low water activity and high concentrations of osmolytes. They are inhabited by diverse microbial communities, of which extremotolerant and extremophilic fungi are essential components. Some fungi are specialized in only one of these two environments and can thrive in conditions

Biodegradation of alicyclic amines by a newly isolated hypersaline tolerant strain Paenarthrobacter sp. TYUT067

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2021
Alicyclic amines are widely used in several types of industries, and considerable attention has been devoted to possible environmental pollution by alicyclic amines in hypersaline industrial wastewater. In this study, a new hypersaline tolerant bacterial

Histology and fossil diagenesis of a pterosaur tooth from the Crato Formation (Lower Cretaceous of Brazil)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Pterosaur dental biology remains poorly understood despite its importance for comprehending feeding strategies and flight adaptations. Here, we present the first comprehensive histological analysis of an ornithocheiriform pterosaur tooth from the Lower Cretaceous Crato Formation (Santana Group, Northeast Brazil).
