This book presents the microbiology of extremophiles living in the deep sea and describes the isolation, cultivation, and taxonomic identification of microorganisms retrieved from the Mariana Trench, the world's deepest point. Also explained are techniques for recovering pressure-loving bacteria, the barophiles (piezophiles), and for whole genome analysis of \u003ci\u003eBacillus halodurans\u003c\/i\u003e C-125. Physiological analysis of the pressure effect in \u003ci\u003eSaccharomyces cerevisiae\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eEscherichia coli\u003c\/i\u003e is used to answer the question of how deep-sea organisms survive under high hydrostatic pressure. These research results are useful in both basic science and industrial applications. Readers discover a new microbial world in the ocean depths, with state-of-the-science information on extremophiles.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1999-11-01\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9784431702634\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-4-431-67925-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235.0cm x155.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 316.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Japan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44541762830476,"sku":"9784431702634","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9784431702634.jpg?v=1759294539","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9784431702634","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
