Modern industrial biotechnology considers extremophilic microorganisms and, in particular, extreme halophiles as promising producers for the bioeconomy of the future. Extremely halophilic bacteria and archaea can be used for the production of carotenoids, polyhydroxyalkanoates, polysaccharides, osmoprotectors, thermostable enzymes, photosystem proteins, and can also be sources of unique biologically active substances for medical purposes. The implementation of large-scale industrial processes with minimal requirem...

The study of the properties and immobilization of various therapeutic agents on natural carriers is an actual task of medical biotechnology and bioorganic chemistry, since this allows creation of stabilized, biologically active drugs with controlled release, as well as a targeted site of action for use in various fields of medicine. Such therapeutic agents can be used as cleansing, antibacterial and (or) antioxidant treatments. The loss of biological activity of the materials, which contains various therapeutic ag...
