A consequence of this is that the definition of the software process is now becoming a central and critical problem. As a contribution to this area, this paper ...

Industrial Important Enzymes from Alkaliphiles – An overview

Alkaliphiles are an interesting group of extremophilic organisms that thrive at pH of 9.0 and above and which are represented by prokaryotes, eukaryotes, and archaea. It is clear that a variety of taxa are represented among the alkaliphiles, some of which are new. Alkaliphiles can be isolated from normal environments such as garden soil, although the number isolated increases dramatically in hi...
