Carotenoids from Haloarchaea and Their Potential in Biotechnology
Rodrigo Baños, Montserrat; Garbayo Nores, Inés
; Vílchez Lobato, Carlos; Bonete, María José; Martínez Espinosa, María Rosa (MDPI, 2015)
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 ... -
Exploring the Valuable Carotenoids for the Large-Scale Production by Marine Microorganisms
Torregrosa Crespo, Javier; Montero, Zaida; Fuentes Cordero, Juan Luis; García Galbis, Manuel Reig; Garbayo Nores, Inés; Vílchez Lobato, Carlos; Martínez Espinosa, María Rosa (MDPI, 2018-06)
Carotenoids are among the most abundant natural pigments available in nature. These pigments have received considerable attention because of their biotechnological applications and, more importantly, due to their potential ... -
Haloarchaeal Carotenoids: Healthy Novel Compounds from Extreme Environments
Giani, Micaela; Garbayo Nores, Inés; Vílchez Lobato, Carlos; Martínez Espinosa, María Rosa (MDPI, 2019-09)
Haloarchaea are halophilic microorganisms belonging to the archaea domain that inhabit salty environments (mainly soils and water) all over the world. Most of the genera included in this group can produce carotenoids at ... -
Haloferax mediterranei Cells as C50 Carotenoid Factories
Giani, Micaela; Montero Lobato, Zaida; Garbayo Nores, Inés; Vílchez Lobato, Carlos; Vega Piqueres, José María; Martínez Espinosa, María Rosa (MDPI, 2021-02)
Haloarchaea produce C50 carotenoids such as bacterioruberin, which are of biotechnological in-terest. This study aimed to analyze the effect of different environmental and nutritional conditions on the cellular growth ... -
Optimization of Growth and Carotenoid Production by Haloferax mediterranei Using Response Surface Methodology
Montero Lobato, Zaida; Ramos Merchante, Adrián; Fuentes Cordero, Juan Luis; Sayago Gómez, Ana; Fernández Recamales, María Ángeles; Martínez Espinosa, María Rosa; Vega Piqueres, José María; Vílchez Lobato, Carlos; Garbayo Nores, Inés (National Center for Biotechnology Information, 2018-10)
Haloferax mediterranei produces C50 carotenoids that have strong antioxidant properties. The response surface methodology (RSM) tool helps to accurately analyze the most suitable conditions to maximize C50 carotenoids ...
