“…In addition to these lipases, several other lipase enzymes from halophilic microorganisms were isolated and characterized. Finally, several screenings have been carried out in order to isolate new halophiles with lipase activity (Amoozegar et al, 2008; Rohban et al, 2009; de Lourdes Moreno et al, 2016; Esakkiraj et al, 2016; Ameri et al, 2017; Gutiérrez-Arnillas et al, 2017; Ai et al, 2018).…”

Global warming and the limitations of using fossil fuels are a main concern of all societies, and thus, the development of alternative fuel sources is crucial to improving the current global energy situation. Biofuels are known as the best alternatives of unrenewable fuels and justify increasing extensive research to develop new and less expensive methods for their production. The most frequent biofuels are bioethanol, biobutanol, biodiesel, and biogas. The production of these biofuels is the result of microbial activity on organic substrates like sugars, starch, oil crops, non-food biomasses, and agricultural and animal wastes. Several industrial production processes are carried out in the presence of high concentrations of NaCl and therefore, researchers have focused on halophiles for biofuel production. In this review, we focus on the role of halophilic microorganisms and their current utilization in the production of all types of biofuels. Also, the outstanding potential of them and their hydrolytic enzymes in the hydrolysis of different kind of biomasses and the production of biofuels are discussed.

“…Halophilic lipases were purified by a three‐step procedure involving precipitation with ammonium sulfate and followed by chromatography two times. Precipitation was also performed with ethanol [9]. Chromatography was performed using ion‐exchange (anion‐exchange or cation‐exchange) chromatography or gel filtration.…”

Microbial halophilic lipases: A review

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Microbial lipases are commercially significant due to their versatile catalytic function of hydrolysis triacylglycerol. Among these, lipases from extremophiles are optimal for industrial application. Halophilic microorganisms living in a high salinity environment, such as the ocean, salt lakes, salt wells, and so on, produce halophilic lipases. In recent decades, many remarkable achievements have been made related to the properties and application of halophilic lipases. This review offers information collected over the last decades on halophilic lipase sources as well as advances in production, factors influencing activity, stability under various conditions, structural characteristics, progress in industrial applications such as food flavor modification, biodiesel production, and waste treatment, to provide theoretical and methodological references for the research in this direction.

“…For example, a Bacillus atrophaeus strain isolated from salty sand in Iran produced an alkaline thermostable extracellular lipase, which exhibited maximum activity at 70°C and pH 9. It also showed resistance to salts, heavy metals, and organic solvents (Ameri et al., 2017). Many more extremotolerant lipases with high functionality across a broad range of harsh conditions have been reported (Table 2).…”
