Enzymological characterization of the sapropelic muds in the lakes Ocna Sibiului.
Journal Title: Extreme Life, Biospeology & Astrobiology - International Journal of the Bioflux Society - Year 2010, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Besides purely scientific interest, the spa waters and therapeutic muds consecrated research have a remarkable practical importance. The evaluation of the water and therapeutical muds’s physicochemical, microbiological and enzymological potential constitutes a remarkable instrument with very high utility to the balneotherapy specialists.

The red neon, Paracheirodon axelrodi (Schultz, 1956), is able to survive in distilled water.
In the current paper we report on the ecophysiological adaptation of the red neon to extremely low water hardness (nearly zero). Such adaptations of aquatic vertebrate species (either fish or frogs) to extreme environmen...
Does natural selection explain the selforganization of the entire cosmos?
Because only enduring systems ultimately persist, physicist D. B. Kelley’s theory of universal selection, or “preservation of the stable,” expounds enormously upon the genesis of every lasting phenomenon in history, maki...
Microbial production of poly-β-hydroxybutyrates -an overview
Efficient poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) production represents an actual preoccupation of fundamental research from current biotechnology. Since PHB production out of renewable sources has a positive environmental impact a...
Describing head shapes of white stem borers (Schirpophaga innotata Walker) that are able to survive on different rice types using Landmark based geometric morphometrics
Rice stem borers are considered as the most serious insect pest of rice in Asia. It infects its plant host by burrowing into the stem using its mandible. However, apart from the mandible, the head of rice stem borers is...
