		<title>Novel industrial applications from salt loving extremophiles</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This blog will review two recent publications that explore environmentally friendly advances in biotechnology by exploiting halophilic organisms from the family Halobacteriaceae. Halophiles are found in all kingdoms of life. They employ two different survival mechanisms to cope with their typically inhospitable environment. &#8230; <a href="http://blogs.biochem.ncsu.edu/industrialapps/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
