Extremophiles comprise microorganisms that are able to grow and thrive in extreme environments, including in an acidic or alkaline pH, high or low temperatures, high concentrations of pollutants, and salts, among others. These organisms are promising for environmental biotechnology due to their unique physiological and enzymatic characteristics, which allow them to survive in harsh environments. Due to the stability and persistence of these microorganisms under adverse environmental conditions, they can be used for the bioremediation of environments contaminated with extremely recalcitrant pollutants. Here, we provide an overview of extremophiles and the role of "omics" in the field of bioremediation of environmental pollutants, including hydrocarbons, textile dyes and metals.
极端微生物包括能够在极端环境中生长和繁殖的微生物，包括酸性或碱性 pH 值、高温或低温、高浓度污染物和盐等环境中。由于其独特的生理和酶学特性，这些生物体在环境生物技术方面具有广阔的应用前景，这些特性使它们能够在恶劣的环境中生存。由于这些微生物在不利的环境条件下具有稳定性和持久性，因此它们可用于生物修复受极难降解污染物污染的环境。在这里，我们提供了极端微生物的概述，以及“组学”在生物修复环境污染物（包括碳氢化合物、纺织染料和金属）领域中的作用。
