Systemic biology of Geobacillus thermocatenulatus upon thermal stress induced by high temperature / Mohd Nur Fakhruzzaman Noorizhab

Thermophile is a group of microorganisms that are capable of growing at high temperature and the ability that allowed them to do so is termed as thermophily. Geobacilli is an example of thermophile which predominately lives in soils and hot springs. It is a well-known source of thermostable enzymes...
