The change from petrol- to biobased industry is one of the major challenges of our society, but also a great opportunity for industrial growth and for improving our quality of life. To foster the development of a biobased industry, novel biotechnological processes are needed to generate new biobased products that can be used as materials, food additives, textiles, coatings, among others. …
Extreme environments such as the Antarctic (marine and terrestrial) and the marine tropical ecosystems are reservoir of microbial diversity. However, little is known of the microbial diversity and genetic resources that inhabit these environments. Microbial communities in marine environments are ecologically relevant and play an important role in nutrient regeneration cycles. The adaptabi…
The microorganisms that inhabit poorly explored and/or extreme ecological niches are potential sources for the discovery of new natural products with specific properties for biotechnological applications. Previous studies related to the Antarctic and marine microbial prospecting revealed the potential of these organisms to the production of active enzymes in salinity conditions or at mild…

Antarctica is considered the continent of extremes, since it has the lowest temperatures already registered, besides having a high incidence of ultraviolet light and low water availability. The microorganisms have adapted and are found living in this remote environment. To do so, it uses survival techniques, including the increase of metabolic flux and the production of cold-adapted enzym…

The diesel oil is the main fuel in the Brazilian energy matrix, being the most commercialized petroleum derivative in Brazil. This fuel is a complex mix of hydrocarbons and due to its recalcitrance and frequent spill accidents, it is worldwide recognized as a threat to aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Several techniques are available for the remediation of hydrocarbon-contaminated site…
