Extreme environments such as the Antarctic can lead to the discovery of new microbial taxa, as well as to new microbial-derived natural products. Considering that little is known yet about the diversity and the genetic ...

The ocean is considered to be a great reservoir of biodiversity. Microbial communities in marine environments are ecologically relevant as intermediaries of energy, and play an important role in nutrient regeneration cycles ...

Aims: The aim of this work was to use mathematical kinetic modelling to assess the combined effects of aW , pH, O2 availability and temperature on the growth rate and time to growth of Aspergillus fumigatus strains isolated ...

Antarctica has one of the most hostile conditions on the planet. The environmental characteristics found in this region favor the development of extremophile microorganisms, which are poorly explored biotechnologically. ...
