Changes in membrane fatty acids of a halo-psychrophile exposed to magnesium perchlorate and low temperatures: Implications for Mars habitability
The presence of perchlorate salts in aqueous solutions bears two opposite effects on habitability. On the one hand, perchlorate salts trigger a decrease in the freezing point of the aqueous solutions, resulting in stable aqueous solutions at subzero temperatures, thereby widening the habitable condi...
