The paper evaluates fluorescent probes for assessing cell envelope structure and function in halophilic archaea under extreme conditions.

This study shows that Aspergillus calidoustus, isolated from spacecraft cleanrooms, can survive simulated space and Martian conditions, highlighting gaps in current sterilization protocols.

ExocubeBio is a miniaturized platform for exposing microbes to space conditions, enabling in-situ measurements and sample return for analysis.

This paper introduces SIP-nanoFTIR to quantify single-cell metabolism and observe growth-dependent spectral features in bacteria.
