Carotenoids from Haloarchaea and Their Potential in Biotechnology

Carotenoids from Haloarchaea and Their Potential in Biotechnology

The production of pigments by halophilic archaea has been analysed during the last half a century. The main reasons that sustains this research are: (i) many haloarchaeal species possess high carotenoids production availability; (ii) downstream processes related to carotenoid isolation from haloarch...
