Özet
Extreme halophilic microorganisms are organisms adapted to live at high salt concentrations and therefore have some interests at biotechnological area. In this study, halophilic archaea were isolated from samples taken from the Camalti Saltern and identification of isolates were performed with their biochemical tests and 16S rDNA sequencing. Isolates 1, 4, 6, 7, 10, 11, 13 were identified as Haloferax alexandrinus with 99% sequence similarity; isolate 5 was identified as Haloferax alexandrinus with 98% sequence similarity; isolate 12 was identified as Haloferax alexandrinus with 96% sequence similarity; isolate 3 was identified as Haloferax sp. HSC4 with 99% sequence similarity; isolate 8 was identified as Haloferax sp. YT 228 with 97% sequence similarity; isolate 2 was identified as Halobacterium salinarum R1 strain with 99% sequence similarity; 9 isolate was identified as Halobacterium salinarum with 97 % sequence similarity.
