Psychrophiles : from biodiversity to biotechnology / [PDF]
The majority of the Earth's biosphere is cold and exposed to temperatures below 5°C throughout the year. Having evolved special mechanisms to overcome the life-endangering influence of low temperatures, psychrophiles, i.e.

Endotoxin Structures in the Psychrophiles Psychromonas marina and Psychrobacter cryohalolentis Contain Distinctive Acyl Features [PDF]
Lipid A is the essential component of endotoxin (Gram-negative lipopolysaccharide), a potent immunostimulatory compound. As the outer surface of the outer membrane, the details of lipid A structure are crucial not only to bacterial pathogenesis but also ...

Psychrophilic microorganisms: challenges for life [PDF]
The ability of psychrophiles to survive and proliferate at low temperatures implies that they have overcome key barriers inherent to permanently cold environments. These challenges include: reduced enzyme activity; decreased membrane fluidity; altered transport of nutrients and waste products; decreased rates of transcription, translation and cell ...

Nanoencapsulation of essential oils (EOs) improves their solubility, stability, and bioavailability. This research aimed to prepare nanoliposomes containing 1% and 2% yarrow (Achillea millefolium) EO and their effect on the shelf life of fresh beef at refrigerated storage. Nanoliposome properties, including encapsulation efficiency, particle size, zeta

Biotechnological Improvements of Cold-Adapted Enzymes: Commercialization via an Integrated Approach [PDF]
Cold-adapted (psychrophilic) enzymes have intrinsically high activities at the expense of low stabilities due to their flexible structures. Their higher thermolability limits their applications under numerous industrial conditions that require the ...

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...
