ABSTRACT:
A method is presented for producing bacteriorhodopsin and carotenoids as secondary metabolites by electrostatic treatment of Halobacterium halobium so as to stabilize stress variants of the halobacteria. The metabolites so produced can be harvested from the cell culture medium or a lysate of the halobacteria.
