Moderately halophilic bacteria are widely distributed in many kinds of fermented foods: for example, strains of Jeotgalibacillus alimentarius were found in jeotgal in Korea (Yoon et al., 2001), Lentibacillus juripiscarius and Lentibacillus halophilus, Tetragenococcus halophilus and T. muriaticus in Thai fi sh sauce (Namwong et al., 2005; Tanasupawat et al., 2006; Thongsanit et al., 2002), Bacil...

We performed the first broad study aiming at the reconstruction of the evolutionary history of vibrios by means of multilocus sequence analysis of nine genes. Overall, 14 distinct clades were recognized using the SplitsTree decomposition method. Some of these clades may correspond to families, e.g., the clades Salinivibrio and Photobacteria, while other clades, e.g., Splendidus and Harveyi, cor...

Microbial electrochemical technologies are becoming an interest for the community due to their possible applications in wastewater treatment, biosensing, biosynthesis, and bioenergy. Fundamental these is use of electroactive microorganisms as bioelectrocatalysts. Recent studies have aimed elucidate electron transfer strategies microorganisms, with a keen extremophilic bacteria enhanced survivab...

kinetics of bacterial growth and protease production were monitored on a novel isolated moderately halophilic bacterium, salinivibrio sp. strain ms-7, and maximum growth and protease activity was achieved after 48 hours at 30°c and 180 rpm. to determine the effect of various carbon sources on protease production, glucose, lactose, sucrose and maltose were investigated and  maximum production of...
