Biodegradation of Aromatic Compounds by a Halophilic Archaeon Isolated from the Dead Sea

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2012
It is well established that aromatic compounds can be readily degraded in aerobic environments within soils, sediments and waters with salinities up to and including that of seawater.

Rediscovering the Endangered Mediterranean Killifish Aphanius iberus: Environmental DNA Reveals Updated Distribution and Conservation Implications in Coastal Habitats

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Key strongholds and successful reintroductions of the endangered Spanish toothcarp, as well as the discovery of remnant populations at some historical sites, were identified through environmental DNA monitoring. These findings highlight eDNA as an effective, non‐invasive tool for advancing conservation efforts of threatened aquatic fauna in fragmented ...

Microbial Diversity in a Hypersaline Sulfate Lake: A Terrestrial Analog of Ancient Mars

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Life can persist under severe osmotic stress and low water activity in hypersaline environments. On Mars, evidence for the past presence of saline bodies of water is prevalent and resulted in the widespread deposition of sulfate and chloride salts.

Intelligent Plasmonic Bio‐Holoelectrochemical Systems: A Testable Architecture for Light‐Programmed Microbial Electrochemistry

Global Challenges, Volume 10, Issue 9, September 2026.
An evidence‐derived architecture integrates structured light, plasmonic bioelectrodes, spatial sensing, microbial electrosynthesis, and digital‐twin control into a testable framework for light‐programmed microbial electrochemistry. Mechanistic discrimination, equal‐dose spatial validation, and conservation‐aware performance accounting define the ...

Metalorganic Titanium Treatment to Change Enamel Optical Properties

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, Volume 114, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Observational studies have shown that human teeth with higher concentrations of titanium traces have better optical properties. The aim of this study was to investigate how titanium ion infiltration into tooth enamel affects its optical properties by studying the diffusion and reactivity of titanium compounds in tooth enamel and how this ...

Surfactant Enhanced Bioremediation of Saline Diesel Contaminated Water by a Novel Bacterial Halophilic Consortium

Journal of Surfactants and Detergents, Volume 29, Issue 5, Page 881-888, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The use of microorganisms is an evolving method for the degradation of hydrocarbon contaminants. In this aim, halophilic hydrocarbon degrading bacteria were isolated from oil contaminated soil in Tunisia. A lipopeptide biosurfactant produced by Bacillus subtilis SPB1 was tested to increase diesel biodegradation along with co‐inoculation with ...

Interpopulation Variation in Seed Germination in Three Plantago Species: Effects of Temperature, Osmotic Stress, and Salinity

New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
Plantago species are widespread in the Mediterranean and have potential applications in restoration of degraded or saline soils. This study examined germination responses of Plantago albicans, P. coronopus, and P. maritima from multiple Iberian populations under different temperature, osmotic stress, and salinity.
