| Summary |
Provides an overview of the methods used for the isolation, cultivation and handling of a variety of extremophiles, both at the stage of their isolation from natural samples, and in pure culture. This work contains protocols specific for work with extremophiles, as well as adaptations of standard microbiology protocols |
