Thermophilic and alkaliphilic microorganisms are unique organisms that possess remarkable survival strategies, enabling them to thrive on a diverse range of substrates. Anoxybacillus, a genus of thermophilic and alkaliphilic bacteria, encompasses 24 species and 2 subspecies. In recent years, extensive research has unveiled the diverse array of thermostable enzymes within this relatively new genus, holding significant potential for industrial and environmental applications. The biomass of Anoxybacillus has demonstrated promising results in bioremediation techniques, while the recently discovered metabolites have exhibited potential in medicinal experiments. This review aims to provide an overview of the key experimental findings related to the biotechnological applications utilizing bacteria from the Anoxybacillus genus.
嗜热和嗜碱微生物是具有独特生存策略的特殊生物体,使它们能够在各种基质上繁衍生息。芽孢杆菌属是一类嗜热和嗜碱细菌,包含 24 个种和 2 个亚种。近年来,广泛的研究揭示了这个相对较新的属内存在的各种耐热酶,这些酶在工业和环境应用方面具有重要的潜力。芽孢杆菌属的生物质在生物修复技术中表现出了有希望的结果,而最近发现的代谢物在医学实验中表现出了潜力。本综述旨在概述与利用芽孢杆菌属细菌进行生物技术应用相关的关键实验结果。
