Application of extremophiles Biotechnological Application of Extremophiles The application of extremophilic microorganisms in industrial processes has opened a new era in biotechnology.Each group has unique features which can be exploited for use in biotechnological industries. The main reason for selecting enzymes from extremophiles are their high stability and reduced risk of contamination of the organisms which produce them.Additional benefits during production include improved transfer rates and lower viscosity.Application of extremophiles • Biotechnological Application of Extremophiles The application of extremophilic microorganisms in industrial processes has opened a new era in biotechnology.
