متن يادداشت

This remarkable text on extremophiles is part advanced introduction, desk-reference, and industrial research cookbook. Extremophiles are organisms that survive in extreme conditions, which may hold insights or direct products for ecological or industrial needs. Singh (biological and health sciences, U. of Pittsburgh) supplies an introduction, while dozens of contributors from academia and industry, contribute to 16 chapters. The chapters are written as modules for overview, with references, concluding remarks and suggestions for research/application at the end of each. The first two chapters introduce the molecular evolution of extremophiles and the methodologies for attaining them. Further chapters look at how to isolate, extract, and use halophilic microorganisms; the biotechnological applications of cold-adapted bacteria; ecology and biochemistry of thermophiles; applications in food production, biofuels, textile substrates, industrial recovery of metals, polymer production, and radiation resistance. The chapters are self-contained and do not need to be read in a particular order. The volume is intended for those with an advanced undergraduate graduate level comprehension of chemistry, biology, ecology. Annotation ©2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
