Background: Glyphosate (N-phosphonomethyl Glycine) is an organophosphorus pesticide with dangerous effects on the environment. In this study, the biodegradation of glyphosate herbicide by halophilic bacteria isolated from Qom Hoze-Soltan Lake has been investigated. Methods: After sampling and bacterial isolation, native halophilic strains grown in the presence of glyphosate at a wavelength of 6...

The objective of this study was to isolate halophilic bacteria with the ability to produce intracellular or extracellular L-asparaginase. A total number of 120 halophilic bacteria were isolated from 17 different saline habitats of Iran including salt lakes, wetlands, brine springs and deserts. Among these, 68 were able to grow in the presence of 1.5 M NaCl and 52 demonstrated the ability to gro...

Unexpectedly high culturable diversity of moderately and extremely halophilic obligately chemolithoautotrophic sulfur-oxidizing bacteria (SOB) was discovered in the sediments of various hypersaline habitats, including chloride-sulfate lakes in Mongolia, Russia and Ukraine, a sea saltern in Slovenia and a deep-sea salt brine from the Mediterranean. Six different groups of halophilic SOB, includi...

Terasi is a condiment in variety of Indonesian cuisine. Toboali’s shrimp paste made the Toboali district, South Bangka. This famous for being delicious and without other additives such as preservatives coloring agent. The purpose this study was to compare bacteria quality with different fermentation times. salt content used 20%. Shrimp raw material A. japonicus solar salt. results showed that a...

halophilic and halotolerant microorganisms are good candidates for decolorization of azo dyeswhich are routinely used in the dyeing process in textile industries. in this paper, theoptimization of biological decolorization of synthetic dye solutions containing remazol black bby the previously isolated halophilic bacterium halomonas sp. d2 is investigated. in a primaryinvestigation using a one-f...
