Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGenetic and Biochemical Aspects of Ectoine Biosynthesis in Moderately Halophilic and Halotolerant Methylotrophic BacteriaValentina N. Khmelenina, Ildar I. Mustakhimov, Alexander S. Reshetnikov et al.Problem statement: The cyclic imino acid ectoine is a widely distributed compatible solute synthesizing by halophilic and halotolerant bacteria to prevent osmotic stress at high external salinity. This water-keeping compound is used in a variety of commercial cosmetics and therapeutic products. Approach: Development of integrated, predictive functional model of the metabolic and regulatory netwoks of ectoine-producing microbes is an active … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 13 Dec 2010 · 9,565 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDiversity of Culturable Halophilic Archaea and Bacteria from Chott Tinsilt and El Malah Salt-Lake in AlgeriaAkmoussi-Toumi Siham, Khemili-Talbi Souad, Kebbouche-Gana Salima et al.At the limits of life, hyper-saline aquatic ecosystems; Chott and Sebkha are a model of choice of extreme environments, housing a halophilic microflora that had to adapt to these conditions. In Algeria, these ecosystems are poorly studied. However, our study was carried out on the waters of Chott Tinsilt and Sebkha El Malah. The study of this microflora revealed the … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2020 · 7,540 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOptimization of Cultural Conditions for Production of Exopolysaccaride by Halomonas marina HMA 103 under Batch-CultureArundhati Pal, Amrita Biswas, Sriya Chatterjee, A. K. PaulA moderately halophilic bacterium, Halomonas marina HMA 103 (MTCC 8968) accumulating intracellular polyesters also produced significant amount of exopolysaccharides (EPS) under batch-culture. Production of EPS by the bacterium was more or less parallel with the growth in modified basal synthetic medium. During growth, it produced 0.46 g/L of EPS after 50 h of incubation and was accompanied by the complete … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 27 Jul 2015 · 7,936 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCytotoxic and Antimicrobial Potential of Actinomycete Species Saccharopolyspora salina VITSDK4 Isolated from the Bay of Bengal Coast of IndiaK. Suthindhiran, K. KannabiranProblem statement: Although the diversity of marine Actinobacteria have been studied and biotechnologically exploited throughout the world, the studies on marine actinobacteria in Indian peninsula are largely unexplored. Of 9 maritime states in India, only 4 states have been extensively studied for the diversity of actinobacteria. Further, the studies on bioactive actinomycetes from saline soil are very scanty. In the … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 11,447 accessesView PDF Cite
