A New Era for Using Natural Pigments: The Case of the C50 Carotenoid Called Bacterioruberin
Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Haloarchaea are extremophilic microorganisms belonging to the Archaea domain that require high salt concentrations to live, thus inhabiting ecosystems like salty ponds, salty marshes, or extremely salty lagoons. They are more abundant and widely distributed worldwide than initially expected.
