Our research aimed to investigate microbial life in radon springs, focusing on isolating extremophilic bacteria and assessing their resistance to adverse conditions. Our study revealed the prevalence of Actinomycetia species in the radon spring environment. We conducted various tests to evaluate the resistance of these isolates to oxidative stress, irradiation, desiccation, and metal ion content. These extremophilic bacteria showed overall higher resistance to these stresses compared to control strains. Lipidomic analysis was also employed to provide insights into the adaptive mechanisms of these bacteria which were found mainly in the correlations among individual clusters and changes in content of fatty acids (FA) as well as differences between content and type of FAs of environmental isolates and type strains.}, keywords = {FATTY-ACIDS; DIVERSITY; WATERS; MICROORGANISMS; Geomicrobiology; radiation-resistant; ACID-COMPOSITION; RADIOTOLERANS SP NOV.; GENUS RHODOCOCCUS}, year = {2024}, eissn = {1932-6203}, orcid-numbers = {Maresova, Helena/0000-0003-2462-390X; Matatkova, Olga/0000-0002-3646-9738} } @article{MTMT:34169705, title = {Radiological assessment of carbonated spring waters in regard to the lithological characteristics of Harghita county, Romania}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34169705}, author = {Savin, Codrin F. and Forray, Ferenc L. and Tănăselia, Claudiu and Begy, Robert-Cs.}, doi = {10.1140/epjs/s11734-023-00879-5}, journal-iso = {EUR PHYS J-SPEC TOP}, journal = {EUROPEAN PHYSICAL JOURNAL-SPECIAL TOPICS}, volume = {232}, unique-id = {34169705}, issn = {1951-6355}, year = {2023}, eissn = {1951-6401}, pages = {1563-1581} } @article{MTMT:23750311, title = {Occurrence of bacteria, protozoans and metazoans in waters from two semi-urbanized areas of Cameroon}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/23750311}, author = {Ajeagah, GA}, doi = {10.1016/j.ecohyd.2013.08.001}, journal-iso = {ECOHYDROL HYDROBIOL}, journal = {ECOHYDROLOGY AND HYDROBIOLOGY}, volume = {13}, unique-id = {23750311}, issn = {1642-3593}, year = {2013}, eissn = {2080-3397}, pages = {218-225} }
