The Saline Aquatic Systems As ‘Natural Reservoirs’ For Microorganisms with Current and Potential Applications. [PDF]

Aerul şi Apa: Componente ale Mediului, 2019
Saline aquatic systems include inland and marine-derived lakes, solar salterns, or temporary inland saline ponds. Despite their high salinity, these ecosystems are inhabited by diverse microbial communities driving full biogeochemical cycling of main ...

Haloarchaeal communities in the crystallizers of two adriatic solar salterns [PDF]

, 2020
: Solar salterns operate only for short dry periods of the year in the north shore of the Adriatic Sea because of its relatively humid and cold Mediterranean climate.

Carotenoid-derived aroma compounds detected and identified in brines and speciality sea salts (fleur de sel) produced in solar salterns from Saint-Armel (France) [PDF]

, 2011
International audienceThe flavor compounds of brines and fleur de sel collected in solar salterns from Saint-Armel (Brittany, France) were investigated by means of headspace-solid phase microextraction–gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (HS-SPME/GC–MS)

Low Water Activity Induces the Production of Bioactive Metabolites in Halophilic and Halotolerant Fungi

Marine Drugs, 2010
The aim of the present study was to investigate indigenous fungal communities isolated from extreme environments (hypersaline waters of solar salterns and subglacial ice), for the production of metabolic compounds with selected biological activities ...

Haloarchaeobius baliensis sp. nov., isolated from a solar saltern

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2016
A novel halophilic archaeon, designated strain 2b_61_3T, was isolated from a solar saltern in Indonesia. Cells of the strain were Gram-stain-negative, motile, pleomorphic rods that formed orange-red-pigmented colonies on solid medium. The isolate grew optimally at 42-44 °C, pH 6.5-7.0, and with 2.6 M NaCl, and MgCl2 was required for growth.

Use of a mixed culture strategy to isolate halophilic bacteria with antibacterial and cytotoxic activity from the Manaure solar saltern in Colombia

BMC Microbiology, 2017
Background Water evaporation in solar salterns creates salinity gradients that promote the adaptation of microbial species to different salinities. This competitive habitat challenges the metabolic capabilities of microorganisms and promotes alterations ...

Selective enrichment on a wide polysaccharide spectrum allowed isolation of novel metabolic and taxonomic groups of haloarchaea from hypersaline lakes

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Extremely halophilic archaea (haloarchaea) of the class Halobacteria is a dominant group of aerobic heterotrophic prokaryotic communities in salt-saturated habitats, such as salt lakes and solar salterns.

Rhodohalobacter sulfatireducens sp. nov., isolated from a marine solar saltern

Archives of Microbiology, 2022
Abstract A novel Gram-stain-negative, oxidase-positive, catalase-positive, non-motile, facultatively anaerobic, and rod-shaped bacterium, designated WB101T, was isolated from a marine solar saltern located in Wendeng, PR China. Growth occurs at 25–42°C (optimum, 35–37°C), 1.0–11.0% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 5.0–6.0%), and pH 7.0–8.5 (optimum, 7.5–8 ...

Distinctive Archaeal Composition of an Artisanal Crystallizer Pond and Functional Insights Into Salt-Saturated Hypersaline Environment Adaptation

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Hypersaline environments represent some of the most challenging settings for life on Earth. Extremely halophilic microorganisms have been selected to colonize and thrive in these extreme environments by virtue of a broad spectrum of adaptations to ...

White Is a New Shade of Blue Carbon: A Case Study of a Traditional Salt Production Pond That is a Net Carbon Sink

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract To address for the first time the carbon budget of traditional salterns, we measured the diel, seasonal, and spatial variability of water‐air CO2‐eq fluxes (CH4 and CO2) and the Organic Carbon (OC) stock and burial rate in the sediment. Temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, pH and wind were assessed as potential environmental drivers of the
