Preservation Strategies for Camel Meat: Quality Improvement and Shelf‐Life Extension

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Camel meat, a crucial protein source in arid regions, faces challenges like high moisture content and susceptibility to spoilage, limiting its shelf life. Traditional methods such as salting, drying, and smoking have been used historically, while modern techniques like refrigeration, freezing, and vacuum packaging enhance quality and safety.

The Structure of the Lipid A of Gram-Negative Cold-Adapted Bacteria Isolated from Antarctic Environments

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2020
Gram-negative Antarctic bacteria adopt survival strategies to live and proliferate in an extremely cold environment. Unusual chemical modifications of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and the main component of their outer membrane are among the tricks ...

Psychrophilic microorganisms: challenges for life [PDF]

open access: yesThe EMBO Reports, 2006
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 ...

Chemoautotrophy in subzero environments and the potential for cold-adapted Rubisco

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology
The act of fixing inorganic carbon into the biosphere is largely facilitated by one enzyme, Rubisco. Beyond well-studied plants and cyanobacteria, many bacteria use Rubisco for chemolithoautotrophy in extreme environments on Earth. Here, we characterized

Global Warming Affects the Pathogenesis of Important Fish Diseases in European Aquaculture

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 1, January 2026.
The effect of global warming on pathogens and their fish hosts that could exacerbate the negative outcomes for aquaculture. Changes in farming practices and the development of innovative mitigation tools may prove essential to cope with the effects and impacts of rising water temperatures on fish diseases in Europe.
