our knowledge about the evolutionary processes of life [1], develop new biotechnological
applications (e.g., industrial applications of ...
Brazilian research on extremophiles in the context of astrobiology
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESSNEW YORK, 2012)
Extremophiles are organisms adapted to grow at extreme ranges of environmental variables, such as high or low temperatures, acid or alkaline medium, high salt concentration, high pressures and so forth. Most extremophiles ...
Poly-extremophiles: exploring the limits of habitability
(Societa Astronomica Italiana, 2019-06)
Brevibacterium linens AE038-8 is an arsenic hyper-tolerant bacterial strain, previously isolated from well water in Tucumán, Argentina. The aim of this study is to investigate the resistance of this strain to different ...
The diversity of microbial extremophiles
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
Extreme environments are defined as those habitats in which human life is not possible. Thus, from a human point of view, those forms of life thriving in those conditions will be called as "extremophiles". Environments ...
Living At The Frontiers Of Life: Extremophiles In Chile And Their Potential For Bioremediation
(2018)
Extremophiles are organisms capable of adjust, survive or thrive in hostile habitats that were previously thought to be adverse or lethal for life. Chile gathers a wide range of extreme environments: salars, geothermal ...
High-Up: A Remote Reservoir of Microbial Extremophiles in Central Andean Wetlands
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2015-12)
The Central Andes region displays unexplored ecosystems of shallow lakes and salt flats at mean altitudes of 3700 m. Being isolated and hostile, these so-called “High-Altitude Andean Lakes” (HAAL) are pristine and have ...
