The moderately halophilic heterotrophic aerobic bacteria form a diverse group of
microorganisms. The property of halophilism is widespread within the bacterial domain …

Halophilic microorganisms are found as normal inhabitants of highly saline environments
and thus are considered extremophiles. They are mainly represented, but not exclusively, by …

Bacteria were isolated from different naturally polluted environments. Metal-resistant
bacteria were selected and minimal inhibitory concentrations of heavy metals (MICs) for …

Accumulation of toxic metals in the environment represents a public health and wildlife
concern. Bacteria resistant to toxic metals constitute an attractive biomass for the …

Microbial community structure, potential microbial activity and As resistance were affected by
arsenic (As), chromium (Cr) and copper (Cu) contamination in soils of abandoned wood …

Heavy metals are dense chemicals with dual biological role as micronutrients and
intoxicants. A few hypersaline environmental systems are naturally enriched with heavy …

Global warming and the limitations of using fossil fuels are a main concern of all societies,
and thus, the development of alternative fuel sources is crucial to improving the current …

The biosorption of the heavy metals most frequently found in polluted environments by
Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus thuringiensis was studied. The effects of these …

Bacterial spores are renowned for their longevity, ubiquity, and resistance to environmental
