Understanding High-Salt and Cold Adaptation of a Polyextremophilic Enzyme
The haloarchaeon Halorubrum lacusprofundi is among the few polyextremophilic organisms capable of surviving in one of the most extreme aquatic environments on Earth, the Deep Lake of Antarctica (−18 °C to +11.5 °C and 21–28%, w/v salt content). Hence, H.

The Effect of Environmental Factors on Microbial Growth [PDF]
Chemical factors that have inhibition based on the results of this practicum are Tetracycline and formalin. In this experiment, no type of liquid bath soap was found that inhibited the growth of E. coli.

A molecular perspective on the limits of life: Enzymes under pressure [PDF]
From a purely operational standpoint, the existence of microbes that can grow under extreme conditions, or "extremophiles", leads to the question of how the molecules making up these microbes can maintain both their structure and function. While microbes

Effect of stevia supplementation of kale juice spheres on their quality changes during refrigerated shelf life [PDF]
Kale is a vegetable with high contents of health–promoting compounds although its consumption as a beverage is highly limited due to its bitter flavour. Nonetheless, the bitter flavour of Brassicas may be masked by sweetening.

Bayesian prediction of bacterial growth temperature range based on genome sequences [PDF]
Background The preferred habitat of a given bacterium can provide a hint of which types of enzymes of potential industrial interest it might produce. These might include enzymes that are stable and active at very high or very low temperatures. Being able

Cold and hot extremozymes: industrial relevance and current trends
The development of enzymes for industrial applications relies heavily on the use of microorganisms. The intrinsic properties of microbial enzymes e.g. consistency, reproducibility and high yields along with many others, has pushed their introduction into
